JARED FABAC

Here's the Bio

I currently serve as the Lead Pastor at One City Church alongside my wife, Danielle, who plays a vital role in various ministry capacities. With a unique blend of professional counseling experience, entrepreneurial leadership, and pastoral insight, my passion is helping individuals grow authentically into their God-given callings—not by merely telling people what they want to hear, but by truly connecting with their hearts and guiding them toward the great purpose God has for their lives.

Before fully committing to ministry, I spent over a decade successfully launching and scaling two marketing companies, where I discovered a deep joy in helping people achieve their highest potential. This journey reinforced my conviction that meaningful leadership involves genuine, heart-to-heart relationships.

In my counseling career, I've earned certifications in Integrated Marriage and Family Therapy, Substance Abuse and Addiction Therapy, Cognitive Behavioral Therapy, Temperament Therapy, and Crisis and Abuse Therapy. My background in mental health deeply influences my preaching and teaching, as I regularly integrate psychological insights into my messages.

Alongside pastoral leadership, I hold certifications as a Speaker, Trainer, and Coach with the John Maxwell Team, and I'm actively involved in international strategies aimed at fostering peace in underdeveloped regions. I am also Maxwell DISC Certified, a Certified Youth Facilitator, and a Certified Executive Leadership Coach with GiANT Worldwide.

Academically, I hold a B.A. in Psychology and an M.A. in Clinical Counseling. I am proud to have served our country as a Veteran of the United States Navy.

Danielle and I have four wonderful daughters, and we currently reside in Virginia Beach.
