John Merritt is the founding pastor on staff at CrossWinds Church, an influential institution in San Francisco's East Bay. He serves as a consultant, coach, and speaker for a network of San Francisco Bay-area pastors and their churches. John has been called "a pastor trapped in an adventurer's body" because when he's not behind a pulpit, you'll find him lobster diving, helicopter skiing, hauling in yellow fin tuna, or rocketing over whitewater in the Grand Canyon.
