Jacob Naron | Lead Pastor
Jacob is our Lead Pastor here at Journey IFC. He holds a Masters of Divinity from Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary where he graduated in May of 2021. Jacob is married to his loving partner Skylar. They are very proud pet parents of a dog and a cat and will happily show you pictures of them if you ask! When Jacob is not at Journey, you can catch him enjoying nature on his porch, paddle boarding at Lady Bird Lake, or playing his guitar. Jacob is an Enneagram 9 with a 1 wing. Jacob’s favorite thing about Journey is that we love deeply and really enjoy living into our imperfect nature. Jacob is so excited to serve Journey as the Lead Pastor alongside Vicki and Stephanie!

YOU
Journey is people-driven, and staff-supported. You make Journey happen. If you’ve been here a long time or just got here - who you are and what you bring is welcome and needed.
Shepherds | Leading
Some of us are Shepherds; that’s our leadership team. Their job is to listen, to calendar, to communicate, and to plan. They’re given responsibility for helping us all fulfill Journey’s purpose. You’ll be introduced to our Shepherds, and they’ll help you discover how who you are, matters here.
Coordinators | Facilitating
Some of us are Coordinators. Their job is to help connect Journeyers’ passions and interests with ways to live out JIFC’s 3 missions. You’ll see ways to meet the Coordinators and see how you can both grow and serve.
Journeyers | Living
All of us Journeyers share JIFC’s purpose of Loving the World. You may do that by growing closer to God; you may do that by serving the poor; you may do that by learning to be a healthier person; you may do that by practicing hospitality.
