If you’re looking for pastors who have ministry degrees, pastoral credentials or conference certificates you’re in the wrong place. But, if you’re looking for pastors who “get it,” get the business, get Hollywood and get that faith might have been checked at the door on the way in, then you’re in a good place.

Hollywood Pastors get why faith needs to be a part of your L.A. experience. If you have questions about career, God, or just need to bitch, feel free to call or write. We don’t care if ya got million dollar problems, Britney sized legal trouble, or you're broke and fameless. We will listen… ultimately helping you make things new, regardless if the Paparazzi is chasing you down Sunset or you’re writing the next great American screenplay at Pete’s.

Founder of Hollywood Pastor and a sold out regular guy who doesn't have pastor degrees, seminary training or Ivy League complacency. He does have many years experience chasing after a God that changed his life. 

After producing television for 20 plus years, J.R. was left needing a long vacation and good rehab. J.R. cut his ministry teeth with an organization called XXXchurch.com where he was a porn pastor for a few years. J.R. also lead a national movement called Starving Jesus, which got its start from the book he wrote of the same title.

He is 40, Husband to Diane, Father to three Adopted kids, Maria, Angel and Zian. He has no idea what Zian means. 

Occasionally people seek J.R.’s advice concerning God and rebuilding faith and career. J.R. says, “Sometimes people are just searching for quick answers while others need a lasting touch with God.” In the past J.R. has been helpful with these things.

He is concerned and passionate for those in the industry needing an ear to bend about life, God, and career. His ear is free and he’s tighter than Catholic confession. 

J.R. loves holding court in the back of the Farmer’s Market with a coffee and something that makes him fat, like cookies or muffins… write him, he’ll tell when he’s there…

One of countless people who left the zip code of their youth to move to 90210. He had dreams of becoming the next underwear model with his name in lights while MTV played his latest lyrical masterpiece.  It seems like the bigger the dream the harder the fall, and fall he did.  After a year of extreme highs and pitiful lows he became self-absorbed, borderline anorexic, and homeless. 

Along came some people who cared about him and not just his pretty face or jean size.  These people genuinely loved him back to Jesus. Not because they were going to get 10% of his next photo shoot, but because they saw how God sees him, broken and in need of a savior.

Devin says, “Hollywood is full of people just like me, and God has called me to be an extension of Him to the broken.”

No stranger to being pulled out of the mire, she has a passion for women, especially those caught in the lie that sexuality equals worth. In an industry where women feel they need to fight for power, and use T and A as their talent, her heart is to help hurting and broken women struggling with who they are, where their beauty comes from and what truly makes a woman powerful.

As a mother to three young children, she also refers to herself as “Sticky Mommy” and spends what little time she has away from the kids communicating and trying to lift up other moms in the same predicament.
