Rev. Rurel Ausley
Now in his 20th year at Crosspoint, Rev. Rurel R. Ausley, Jr. has seen the church grow from 1,000 in attendance on one campus to an average weekend attendance of more than 3,800 on multiple campuses. According to the latest UMC statistics, (2016) Crosspoint is currently the 10th largest UMC, by attendance, and in top ten of the fastest growing large UM churches.
Rurel and Crosspoint are very involved in the Democratic Republic of Congo where Crosspoint has built 60+ churches and two parsonages in the last six years. Rurel has made nine trips to Africa in seven years training pastors for leadership, dedicating churches, and helping them understand the dynamics of the denomination’s General Conference.
Ordained an Elder in the Alabama West-Florida Conference in 1981, Rurel was elected in 2008 and 2012 by the Alabama West Florida Conference to the denomination’s General Conference and five times to the Jurisdictional Conference.
Rurel received his B.A. degree in Sociology/Bible from Asbury University, and his Master of Divinity degree from Asbury Theological Seminary in Wilmore, Kentucky. It was in seminary that he met and married his wife, Lisa. Lisa is a Deacon, now serving at Crosspoint, South Crestview Campus. They have three adult sons: Matthew (Kristin), Andrew (Ellen), and Luke, and four grandbabies, Levi, Benaiah, Nate, and Joy.
