About Eric Schumacher
Home » Contributors
While studying at the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, Eric took a class in Hymnology. This class affected him by showing him the need for well-written, theological songs that serve the church by capturing their hearts and minds with the knowledge of God.
After seminary, Eric and his family returned to Iowa, where he now pastors Grand Avenue Baptist Church in Ames. He previously pastored churches in Keokuk and Cedar Rapids, and served as Director of Operations for 20schemes. Eric and his wife Jenny have four sons and a daughter. In his "spare time," he writes songs and is slowly attempting his first novel. You can follow him on his blog, Facebook, and Twitter.
