Todd Liles
Minister of NextGen Worship. Todd was born and raised in Plainfield, Indiana. After graduating high school, he went to Anderson University and graduated with a degree in Christian Ministry. He's been married to his wife Carrie for almost 4 years and they have two sibling dogs named Russ and Audrey. Todd loves the outdoors and traveling. His digital life is run by Apple computers. He could talk about guitars and amps all day long and loves vintage music gear. Todd still buys all his music on CDs and vinyl records. Christmas and the holidays are by far the best time of the year for Todd. Especially if it's a snowy one! He has black coffee running through his veins at all times and his body runs on burritos. He has a beard, LIKE JESUS DID (for any beard haters out there), because he wants to be more like Him everyday, all the time, in everything he does.
