Pastor Jeremy Yong

Jeremy serves as Associate Pastor of Discipleship at Evergreen, with special emphasis on the oversight of Evergreen's public services, Adult Education, and the Young Adult ministry. By the grace of God, he came to repent of his sin and trust in Christ as Lord and Savior through the witness of his mother and the Chinese church he attended in Orange County. He received a B.A. from Biola University, an M.Div. and D.Min. from Southern Seminary (Louisville, KY), and is currently a Ph.D. student in theology at Gateway Seminary.

Jeremy has been in the ministry for 20 years, serving in a few different areas of the US (CA, Washington, D.C., KY), as well as overseas in Dubai, United Arab Emirates. For a number of years he served as Adjunct Theology Professor at Biola University, Talbot School of Theology.

He is married to his childhood friend, Melanie, and together they have four children (college down to junior high school age). Jeremy enjoys exploring other cultures, reading, practicing Brazilian Jiu Jitsu, and dry-aging steaks for his family and friends.
