Brenden Pugh

Director of Technology

Here at Gloria Dei, I am responsible for all things technology in the building. From maintaining gear, training volunteers, and our weekend livestream crews, I work closely with our ministries, staff and volunteers to make sure they have what they need create the best experience possible for our weekend services and other events throughout the week. I also oversee the production of video content for weekend services and social media.

My beautiful wife, Sarah, and I live in our hometown of Winterset, Iowa on a small acreage just outside of town, with our daughter Sophia. In our free time we enjoy working on the farm, going for walks with our puppy Bella, and watching lots of movies. I am an avid reader of science fiction, fantasy and comic books, being a completely unashamed nerd, enjoying everything from superheroes to Star Wars to Lord of the Rings.

I am constantly overwhelmed by the love of Jesus. Knowing there is a God who loves me unconditionally, despite all of my flaws and imperfections, is something that is hard for me to put into words. I hope to serve the Lord and his church as faithfully as I can, using the gifts I’ve been given to share the love He has shown me with those around me.
