Paul & Analiese Haben
Senior Pastor
Paul and Lisa Haben have been involved in giving to others since before they were married 30 years ago. Ordained as Pastors in 1994, they have been pivotal in establishing several ministries throughout the San Antonio and South Central region of the United States. Ministry has been a passion for the Haben Family for a very long time.
Coming from a line of Pastors and musicians Paul grew up in ministry. Paul began serving in ministry in 1984 and began traveling in ministry full time with Pastor Rick Hawkins in 1992. Under the mentorship of now Bishop Rick Hawkins, Paul served in every capacity of ministry and church administration as well as a board member, officer and consultant for several Non-Profit Educational, Church and Ministry organizations.
​
Lisa grew up under the tutelage of her Father and Mother, Pastor Ivan and Teri Ujueta and her grandmother, Eva Martinez who served with Ruth Bell, the wife of Pastor John Bell of Revival Temple in San Antonio, TX.
With a foundation in ministry and a passion for serving children, Lisa has served as a Daycare Director, Ministry Director and Children's Pastor for 15 years, an educator for 12 years and is currently Assistant Principal at Champion High School in Boerne, TX while finalizing her Doctorate at Abeline Christin University.
​
Paul and Lisa met at church in 1990 and the rest as they say is history! Married in 1994, Paul and Lisa have two children, Josiah and Avalon (and her husband Aaron who live in TN and serve in the Armed Forces). The Haben Family resides in Spring Branch / Bulverde, TX.

Josiah Haben
Co Pastor
Josiah was born to Paul and Analiese in 1995 at 21.5 weeks weighing 1 lb. 6 oz. with a 0% statistical chance of survival. With a Grade IV hemorrhage in the left ventricle of his brain Josiah’s chances of having a normal life were presented to his parents as ‘slim’ and spent the first 3-1/2 months of his life in the NICU.
​
Almost losing his sight as an infant on two occasions, has was also diagnosed with Bronchopulmonary Dysplasia (which he overcame at the age of 6) and Cerebral Palsy. He has had 10 major operations, (several prior to the age of 8) with 3 taking place in the first 3 months of his life.
​
Through every challenge Josiah has maintained his faith and love for God. Josiah does not fall back on his limitations; he finds purpose in them and a way to excel. Even as a baby, not being able to crawl or walk, he would scoot himself on his back throughout the house determined to experience his surroundings!
Overcoming the challenges associated with his early birth, Josiah has excelled in literature, writing, speech, debate and music. As early as the age of 5 Josiah has won local, national and international awards for Literature and Musicianship as well as The Luis Armstrong Jazz Award at SVHS.
​
Exceling at playing the piano and organ only using the first 3 fingers on each hand, he has served as Organist/Music Director at Place For Life Church in San Antonio since 2017. Josiah is following his calling to ministry attending Liberty University, Dallas Baptist University and is currently in his final year of Biblical Studies/Pastoral Leadership at Valor Christian College.
​
Josiah is determined to find purpose in his challenges, imparting hope to others, that through Jesus, their dreams and goals are never out of reach as long as they Live Life on Purpose and Never Quit!
