Our mission here at Fellowship is to Make Disciples, and part of this mission includes the essential work of building remarkable marriages–marriages centered on Christ and marked by love, enjoyment and commitment to one another. To that end we offer a Mentor Couple experience for those anticipating marriage or for those who are in their first three years of marriage. Pastor Chuck Olson leads this dynamic and engaging ministry experience, and you can find out more by contacting: marriage@madeforfellowship.com or calling (626) 239.8109.
“Having a mentor couple has been a great experience. Since both of our parents do not live near us, it is good to spend time with wiser adults and to glean from their experiences. Plus, they’re people we just like spending time with! Every young couple should take advantage of this amazing ministry at Fellowship Monrovia. We’re definitely better for it!” – Kyle and Joy
Born and raised in Los Angeles, Chuck has served for over 35 years as an executive pastor. From those years, he brings to Fellowship a deep passion for developing leaders who value the importance of leading not with positions or titles, but with WHO they are. He is constantly pursuing ways to challenge leaders to look at the interior issues of life and leadership.
Chuck did his undergrad work at BIOLA, earned a Th.M. at Dallas Seminary, and received his Doctor of Ministry at Talbot School of Theology. He is also the Founder and President of Lead With Your Life, Inc., a movement of Kingdom leaders who lead from the inside out.
He enjoys taking long walks with his college sweetheart, Pattie, coaching and mentoring men, diving into books on leadership and spiritual formation, running and working out, eating Chinese food, rooting for the USC Trojans, and spending as much time as possible with his six amazing grandkids—Charlie, Dillan, Connor, Kate, Jack, and Mackenzie.
