Guest Speaker

Nathan Mestler, President of International Baptist College & Seminar (IBCS) of Chandler, AZ.

Pastor Nathan grew up in ministry, first as a pastor’s son in Bernalillo, New Mexico, and then in Nairobi, Kenya, where his family were missionaries. At age 16, he dedicated his life to full-time Christian ministry. He received a B.A. in Bible and Christian Service in 2003 from International Baptist College and Seminary and an M.Div. in 2009 from Calvary Baptist Theological Seminary in Lansdale, Pennsylvania. In 2009, Pastor Nathan and his family returned to Arizona, where he began to work on the staff at International Baptist College and Seminary. He has served as the Dean of Students at IBCS, then as the college pastor at Tri-City Baptist Church. Pastor Nathan also currently serves as the wing chaplain of the 162nd Wing of the Arizona Air National Guard, Tucson, Arizona. He was installed as the president and CEO of IBCS in the spring of 2020 and continues to teach Bible and Biblical languages in both the undergraduate and graduate programs at IBCS. He loves to preach and teach the Word of God, especially to young people.
