My name is Kevin Stone and I founded Executive Pastor Online. I have a passion for the church and what Jesus is calling us to do through it. I made the move from corporate to the church as Executive Pastor after many years in increasingly complex and challenging leadership roles.
I’m now mostly interested in helping church leaders figure out how to accomplish their missions, using basic, fundamental leadership principles that I believe are critical to success. My passion for sharing good stuff with other church leaders has led me to create this site.
Just A Little About Me
I have 3 incredible kids, all grown and married; and I have 3 (going on 4) grandkids. My wife Terri is awesome. I’m so fortunate to have been married to her for going on 28 years. I enjoy working on my house, shooting pool, and playing Texas Hold’em poker with good friends on occasion.
I love the whole concept of blogging and social media. What an awesome way to keep oneself fresh, with new ideas and to have a forum for sharing best practices and methods that help others to succeed. I’m interested in understanding more about leadership and how to be the leader God intended me to be in the church.
Just A Little (More) About Me
In one way shape or form, I’ve been in leadership since I joined the Navy right after high school. I volunteered to be a section leader on my first day of boot camp and went from there. By the time my ship left the shipyards, following a re-fit, I was work center supervisor in the forward engine room.
After getting out of the Navy, I moved to Colorado and went to work for Micro Motion, an up and coming manufacturing company. I held several leadership positions over a 16 year period from lead mechanic/shop electrician to production supervisor, quality manager, plant manager (in Chihuahua, Mexico), product line director, to vice president of operations for Brooks Instrument, a sister division of Micro Motion, in Hatfield, Pennsylvania.
A couple of years before joining the staff at CCV, I made a major career move from manufacturing to the telecommunications industry when I went to work for Comcast Corporation as an operations director in the high-speed internet division. Along the way I managed to get my Bachelor’s Degree in Computer Information Systems from Regis University, minoring in Business Management.
There you have it! That’s me. If you would like to connect in one way or another, contact me.
