Stevenson is the Senior Pastor and Founder of The Fort Bend Church in Sugar Land\, Texas\, which he launched in 2004 on the pillars of trust\, faith\, kindness\, compassion\, and generous living. Under his leadership\, the church now supports over 45 ministries and a staff of 40\, all committed to “serving the total needs of God’s people.”\n\nA respected community leader\, Pastor Stevenson has served on several boards\, including the Baptist General Convention of Texas and the Houston Area Urban League\, and is a member of Alpha Phi Alpha Fraternity\, Inc. His ministry has taken him to Cairo\, Egypt; Rome\, Italy; Jerusalem; Amman\, Jordan; and Bethlehem\, as he continues to proclaim the gospel across the globe. He is married to his high school sweetheart\, Sonya\, and they have two daughters\, Claire Alexandra and Cydney Victoria.

SUMMARY:CONVO: “Fully Alive: Habits for Intimacy with Jesus – Worship” with Nick Villalon
DESCRIPTION:CONVO: “Fully Alive: Habits for Intimacy with Jesus – Worship” with Nick Villalon \n\n\nWednesday\, Feb. 11\, 11 a.m. \n\n\nDunham Theater \n\n\nWe’re excited to hear from HCU’s Director of Worship and Discipleship\, Nick Villalon\, speak on the topic of worship. Born and raised in Houston\, TX\, Nick came to faith in 2018 after pursuing a career in acting\, where he encountered the grace and truth of Jesus Christ in a life-shaping way. His story reflects a deep conviction that worship is a response to the gospel that shapes the whole of life\, expressed not only in personal devotion but in the gathered church as believers address one another in psalms\, hymns\, and spiritual songs.
