Troy Fitzgerald

Troy Fitzgerald is a pastor, teacher, writer and coach. He is married to his wife Julia, and together they have raised two amazing sons, and a few animals along the way. He holds a bachelor’s in theology from Southern College in Tennessee, a master’s in education, and a doctorate in leadership from Andrews University. Over the past 30 years, Troy has written books, curricula and devotional resources focused on Christian living. He was raised in California’s Silicon Valley — and 10 years in the south and Midwest. After 25 years serving at Walla Walla University as a pastor and professor, he now serves as lead pastor of the Wenatchee Seventh-day Adventist Church and lives in Wenatchee, Washington. He enjoys all sports, especially soccer, while golf remains more of a struggle than a sport. When time allows, he is slowly restoring a 1973 Land Cruiser. He writes with an earnest desire to listen and learn, trusting that expression is the bridge between thoughtful attention and faithful action.
