Josh Howerton – Providing Biblical Clarity in a World of Confusion

Josh Howerton is the Senior Pastor of Lakepointe Church, a multisite (and multilingual) church with 6 campuses in Dallas, TX. Before Lakepointe, he graduated with a degree in Biblical Studies from Union University before heading to Southern Seminary and pastoring The Bridge Church in Nashville, TN for ten years.

The three things Josh is most passionate about are making disciples at Lakepointe Church, training leaders, and planting churches through the Strategic Launch Network, Lakepointe’s church planting network that has planted and continues to coach over 60 churches in predominantly secular cities throughout the United States.

Josh Howerton grew a love for ministry by watching his dad Rick Howerton, a generational leader, pastor throughout his childhood and teenaged years. His journey into pastoral ministry is deeply rooted in a rich family legacy, being a third-generation pastor with both his grandfather and father serving in ministry before him. This foundational background, coupled with his own transformative encounter with Christ at the age of 16, set the stage for Pastor Howerton’s deep commitment to the gospel and church leadership.

He is a leading voice in the cultural issues of our day and how the church can best respond. Bold and compassionate, Josh provides biblical clarity in a world of confusion. 

In addition to his pastoral duties, Josh is deeply committed to his most important role as a husband and father. Josh is married to Jana and together they have two daughters, Eliana and Felicity, and a son, Hudson. Together they are raising a family that loves Jesus and is committed to serving His bride.
