Staff
Perissos Resources gratefully acknowledges the dedicated participation of these people, without whom the ministry could not function effectively:
Board of Directors
Lynn Erhorn, President
Born and raised in Long Island, New York, Lynn and her husband Craig have been residents of Jacksonville since 2005. Lynn has over 20 years experience in the corporate sector specializing in training, communications, events planning, and project management. She gave her life to the Lord Jesus Christ in 1997. She has volunteered as a moderator for TheologyWeb.com (the largest Christian-owned theology debate and discussion internet forum) since 2003, also serving as their staff convention director.
Lynn completed training under Dr. Joyce Shelton’s Women of Excellence Ministry in “Facilitator Lay Leadership for Small Groups” and “Facilitator Training in Boundaries” and currently serves as a teacher/facilitator for the ministry. She has also completed the Leadership Equipping Track at New Life Christian Fellowship and has served there as a teaching minister. Lynn has delivered the “Boundaries” program to Jacksonville residents in several formats, from a 16-week course with small group support to a single day seminar, all with overwhelmingly positive feedback.
In 2008, Lynn made the commitment to serve the Lord fully and is currently developing the Perissos Resources ministry into a fully-equipped resource center for the local and online communities. In 2009, she was trained by Focus on The Family to facilitate the outstanding program, “The Truth Project,” and partnered with Reclaiming the Mind to bring their seminary-level systematic theology training, “The Theology Program,” to the Jacksonville area. Lynn is constantly evaluating programs and services for their integrity and benefit to those seeking to live responsibly, and is personally developing seminars and media events tailored to this ministry’s vision. Lynn is an ordained minister of the gospel of Jesus Christ by The Missionary Church International in South Carolina.
