Me and my wife Jenn have served in youth ministry at College Church in Olathe for over 15 years. We have four kids, Noah 13, Brooklynne 11, Carter 10 and Jentry 8. I am the General Manager at Rush Truck Centers of Kansas located in Olathe and serve on the Board of Education for the Spring Hill School District.

We love serving the youth of the church and enjoy entertaining at our home in rural Spring Hill.
I am a product of the local Nazarene youth ministry at College Church and also a proud veteran of the United States Marine Corps.
I have enjoyed planning and executing trips for our youth group while between youth pastors as well as coordinating the District’s NYC event last year. I look forward to planning many events for the district in the future.
In my free time (which is VERY little) you can find me and my sons either hunting or on the golf course.Contact Nick at nicholashunt@att.net

South Central Representative - KC first

Travis Johnson
Northern REPRESENTATIVE
Travis is very lucky to be married to the love of his life, Katrina. There were blessed on Thanksgiving day 2016 with their daughter Elizabeth. She brings so much joy into their lives! Travis and his wife attended Kentucky Mountain Bible College before moving to Kansas City. He am currently working to finish his Bachelor of Arts in Religion. In the Summer of 2017, Travis received his District Minister’s License in the Church of the Nazarene.
Travis' favorite food is anything cooked on the grill (or smoked) or Fried. He can’t choose between them. He has a love for music and drama. He has always loved to act and sing. It has been awesome to see how God has used his passions to help him minister to those around him. He loves all different genres of music but some of his favorite artists include Casting Crowns, Jeremy Camp, Tenth Avenue North, Pillar, Skillet, Lecrae, and KJ-52.
Travis' favorite verse is 1 Corinthians 10:13 - “No temptation has overtaken you that is not common to man. God is faithful, and he will not let you be tempted beyond your ability, but with the temptation he will also provide the way of escape, that you may be able to endure it.”
