Our Guest
Steve Nicholson I Evanston Vineyard
Steve Nicholson is the long-time senior pastor of the Evanston Vineyard outside of Chicago, IL, and has served the Vineyard movement for 40 years training church leaders and church planters across the globe.
Steve began ministering as a college student through InterVarsity Christian Fellowship in the early ‘70s. After graduating, he moved to the Chicago area where he and several other 20-something leaders founded a church that placed a high priority on contemporary worship, biblical teaching, committed relationships as a church family, and an openness to the work of the Holy Spirit.
That church, now the Evanston Vineyard, is today a diverse congregation from over 50 nations with no majority racial or cultural group. In addition, the Evanston Vineyard has planted 10 other congregations in the Chicago area and another 15 in other cities and countries.
