Welcome to McGlinchys.com.
We live in the Pacific Northwest, near where Nate grew up, 2200 miles west of where Becky grew up in Northern Indiana. We have two girls, Allayah & Elli, who are now young adults. Allayah and Micah were married in 2022 and live in Louisville, KY, attending Boyce College and Southern Seminary. Allayah also sells her artwork on her Etsy shop. After serving in cross-cultural missions last year, Elli is home and working. Most of our time is devoted to family, following Jesus, serving the local church, and music.
In 2014, we moved from New Jersey to plant BridgeCity church, where Nate served as lead pastor. In November 2020, BridgeCity merged with Restoration Road Church, and Nate took on a staff pastor role. During that season of ministry, Nate completed his Master’s degree in Theological Studies at Gateway Seminary while continuing to serve the local church.
Our music remains primarily within the church, but there was a time when our music had a more prominent role in our lives. From 2003-2007 we composed, recorded, and played live shows with our band, Takeaway Me, and at our local church, Downtown@808 (Goshen, IN). During those years, we completed two album projects, played many shows, and were featured artists on the Christian Radio station (WFRN) located in Northern Indiana.
We have recently accepted the call to replant a church in Cookeville, TN, and are preparing to make the move to the south. Our home is on the market, and we are making plans for a new season and a new location.
