Mark grew up in the East Bay but left to go to UC San Diego for college. There, he met his beautiful wife, Mira. After receiving his call into ministry, he gave up the pursuit of dental school but continued to work bi-vocationally as a research chemist in the biotech industry. He eventually enrolled at Talbot Theological Seminary where he graduated with a Masters of Divinity. Mark started Kairos Church in 2006 and served as the founding pastor for 5 years until sensing a call to return back to the Bay Area to start Radiance. In his free time, he loves to play golf and surf, go hiking, as well as spend quality time with family. He is a die-hard Bay Area sports fan and roots faithfully for the Niners, Giants, and Warriors!

Andy graduated from Northwestern University with a major in economics with the desire to make it “big.” Afterward, he started working in corporate America and realized God had a different plan for him. Responding to the call to ministry, he began seminary at Trinity Evangelical Divinity School in Chicago while serving as a youth pastor. In early 2015, he moved to San Francisco to serve at Radiance while finishing his Masters of Divinity at Fuller Theological Seminary. He has a heart for the city of San Francisco to see God redeem the broken and the lost. In his free time, he enjoys eating and exploring different places in the city with his amazing wife Jane. They're expecting a baby boy in the summer!

Mira is a San Diego native and met Mark during his college years. They have been married for over 20 years and have two beautiful children, Jeremiah and Carissa who have been with them every step of the way on this crazy journey of following God. Mira has a deep desire to see women healed from their past hurt and to experience freedom as they discover their identity and purpose in God. Her current focus is discipleship and inner healing as God leads her to empower and equip women in their faith journey. In her free time, Mira loves to go out and meet new people to hear their stories. She also enjoys her dates with Mark where you will often find them hiking somewhere in the city or enjoying coffee at one of the many cafes.
