Brad Morello

Pastor of Counseling & Missions

Brad Morello starting serving as the Interim Minister at C3 in August of 2019 and as the Pastor of Counseling and Missions in February of 2020. His responsibilities include overseeing C3’s biblical counseling and missions ministries, with occasional preaching and teaching opportunities. Brad has a passion for the local church to grow in godliness and to effectively participate in the Great Commission in Houston and around the world.

Brad became a Christian here in Houston during high school through the ministry of Young Life. He quickly developed a passion to know Christ and to make Him known. His love for God and His Word can be traced back to the ministries of men like John Piper, Charles Spurgeon, and others who championed expository preaching and the Glory of God as the end of all our pursuits. Brad holds a Ph.D. in Missions and New Testament from The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, where he previously served as an adjunct professor of Christian Missions. Before coming to C3, Brad and his family served as missionaries in East Asia for eleven years.

Brad is quick to admit that he married well above himself! He and Amy have been partners in ministry for the past 26 years and have three college-age children: Savannah, Peter, and Alex. They have all committed themselves to the Lord and are learning how to be and make disciples. They truly bring untold joy to their parent’s lives daily.

Justin Fordinal

Executive Director
Justin grew up in The Woodlands, TX and came to faith through the ministry of Young Life. After graduating from Oak Ridge High School in 2004, he went off to college which culminated in him receiving a B.A. from Texas A&M University in 2008.
After college Justin eventually stepped into the dual role of Student Minister and Church Planting Resident. When the residency ended, Justin became the Founding Pastor of Risen Church in Cypress, TX where he served as Lead Pastor for 8 years. Justin’s experience and background has given him a lot of relevant ministry experience which has helped form him into a gifted minister of the Gospel. Soon after graduating with a Master’s in Theological Studies (with concentration in Applied Theology) from Grimke Seminary in 2021, Justin and his two wonderful sons (Keller & Reid) became involved with C3.
Justin was approached by the church to prayerfully consider stepping down from his role as Chief of Staff at his current job and stepping into the role of Executive Director of C3. Justin joyfully accepted this invitation. Justin has a passion for the Gospel of Christ to be magnified, for the church to reflect the nature and character of God, and to see lives changed for God’s glory and our joy

Clark Henry

Community Groups Director
Clark has been on staff with C3 since January 2022, and served as the Student Ministry Director for 3.5 years until transitioning into his current role.
Clark desires to see God’s people transformed by and excited about the gospel of Jesus Christ – such that they mature as disciples and make new disciples for a lifetime. In the community groups ministry, Clark desires to care for and equip leaders so they feel empowered to multiply disciples – both inside and outside their CG.
Clark graduated from TCU in 2007; he has an M.B.A. from Rice University, and a M.A. in Biblical Counseling from the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. He and his wife Megan have been married since 2015, and they have three children – Emma, Ava Grace, and Camden.

Matt Beckler

Music Director

Matt currently serves as the Music Director at C3 Houston. Prior to full-time ministry, he spent many years in Nashville working as a songwriter and artist, and it is where he met his wife, Tiffany. After more than a decade of touring and playing his music for people all over the country and beyond, he felt a strong calling to vocational ministry in a local church context. 

In his work, Matt has a strong passion to creatively express the beauty of God and the story of His creation.

Matt grew up in the suburban sprawl of Chicagoland, and now, along with his wife and 7 year old son, Charlie, is grateful to call Houston their home.

Brooke Roberts

C3Kids Coordinator

Brooke is from Sherman, Texas, north of Dallas and a graduate from the University of North Texas with an Elementary Education Degree. She has used this degree in teaching 5th graders as well as serving her church to help the kids program at Fellowship Bible Church in Jonesboro, AR for 4 years before stepping down due to having her own kids. She wants all of our kids to hear the gospel weekly through the teaching they will receive at C3.

Brooke met the love of her life Michael through College Life Ministries at Denton Bible Church in Denton, TX. They have been married since 2000 and have been blessed with two beautiful daughters: Emery and Landry and a very handsome son, Jameson.

Erin Bush

Executive Administrator

Erin grew up in Houston, Texas, where she was blessed to grow up in the church and a Christ-centered family. She came to know Jesus at a young age but really grew in her relationship with the Lord in college. Erin is passionate about serving the church body and helping out in any way she can!

Erin graduated Texas A&M University (whoop!) in 2009 with an Education degree. She taught 7th and 8th grade English in Katy for four years. During that time, she met her wonderful husband, Brian, at a church in Houston. His job forced them to leave the great state of Texas for Southern California where she tutored 5th-8th graders. By the grace of God, she returned to Texas in 2016 after having their first daughter. Together, Brian and Erin now have 3 kids.

Carol Bradley

Student & Creative Ministries Associate

Originally from Southern California, Carol has had a heart for ministry from a young age. Among a sea of aspiring veterinarians and nurses, she proudly showed up to kindergarten career day with her karaoke machine as a worship leader! She grew up singing and performing in musical theater and improv, which shaped her passion for worship and creative expression. Carol rarely passes up a chance to bring humor into the room. She’s known for making people laugh and carrying joy and authenticity.

Carol has worked in fields from studio photography to customer retention to office management, gaining valuable life experience and a heart for connecting with people in all walks of life. Throughout, she continually prayed for the chance to one day work in the church. Though never especially career-driven in the traditional sense, she’s always known ministry was where her heart belonged. Being C3’s personality hire has truly been one of the greatest joys of her life!

In June 2023, Carol married her husband, Caleb, and in March 2024, they moved to Houston! Their church hunt started and stopped at C3, and she officially joined staff in spring 2025. Carol is passionate about discipleship and growth towards a practical, authentic relationship with Jesus. She strives to make the gospel approachable and to create spaces where people can live out the truth of Jesus deeply and unashamed with joy, laughter, and honesty. Carol’s desire is to live a life marked by the hope, joy, and peace that come from trusting in Jesus, as described in Romans 15:13: “May the God of hope fill you with all joy and peace in believing, so that by the power of the Holy Spirit you may abound in hope.”

Caleb Bradley

Student Ministry Coordinator

Caleb grew up in Temecula, California, a small city in Southern California. Though he does not remember a time without Jesus as his savior, his high school youth group and grandfather’s discipleship greatly impacted him by teaching him to love the Bible and follow Jesus with his whole heart. After graduating from California Baptist University with a bachelor’s degree in mechanical engineering, he married his wife Carol in the summer of 2023. Five months later, Caleb was laid off from his engineering job, and through much prayerful consideration, the newlyweds decided to pack up and move to Houston. They found C3 through 9Marks and The Gospel Coalition websites, and after one visit they never looked back.

Caleb is passionate about learning theology, studying God’s word, and loves to play a round of golf when the Houston weather will allow it. He longs to take after his childhood youth leaders in the way he disciples the high school and middle school students. He prays that the C3 youth ministry will be a place where students can, “Pursue righteousness, faith, love, and peace, along with those who call on the Lord from a pure heart” (2 Tim 2:22).

Annie Wang

Communications Manager

Annie grew up all over the place, but is now back at home in Houston where she spent the best years of her childhood (always a proud Lanier Purple Pup and Bellaire Cardinal)! Annie came to know Jesus through the influence of her devoted parents and the youth ministry of Houston Chinese Church. While studying visual arts at Harvard, Annie co-founded a media/marketing company which she ran for 15 challenging yet fruitful years. She also met her best friend and husband Kenny Fan and began serving together at a church plant in Boston. God was so faithful through consuming careers, multiple moves, and the arrival of their children Lucas and Eden.

After settling in Houston in 2022, Annie & Kenny found C3 where they quickly felt spiritually nourished and discipled like never before. Annie sensed a call to exit her company with hope in God’s sovereignty through the process and beyond. Nothing could have prepared her for His lavish provision and protection in that transition…or the surprising opportunity that would soon present itself: a role with C3!

Now, Annie joyfully serves as C3’s Communications Manager, overseeing the newsletter, social media, graphic design, and more. She feels deeply humbled and inspired to equip everyone from members to internet strangers/seekers alike to engage with C3 teachings & events, and to support the goals of C3’s ministries through her work. In her spare time, Annie enjoys volunteering in her PTA, working out at F45, and traveling with her family!

Roxanna English

C3Serve Coordinator

After growing up in the small west Texas town of Marfa, Roxanna attended Texas A&M University where she met her husband Alex at Fish Camp in 2006. After graduation with an Entomology degree and getting married in 2010, they moved to Houston and started growing a family. The Lord made himself known to and saved Roxanna through the faithful ministry of a loving church body in Fulshear. Her passion for knowing God and being transformed by Christ began to grow during her membership at a Cypress church where she served in many ways. 

Alex, Roxanna and their four children began attending C3 in 2023. Roxanna enjoys helping others to know Christ through his Word in a way that impacts how we live and serve. Alongside her husband, they have served C3 in cultivating and leading the C3Serve team. The C3Serve team serves the body through tangible hospitality and practical needs on Sunday Morning, but ultimately the team serves to create a culture that fosters others being integrated into the life and body of C3.
