About Richard Schwartz

Richard is an ordained pastor in the Presbyterian Church of America.  He served as an assistant in two different contexts, has labored as the lead pastor in Clarksville, Tennessee for 20 years and led this particular body through several different stages of transition.  For the last 15 years he has also been on the Shepherding Committee of his local presbytery (as chairman, co-chairman, and member) coming alongside pastors in crisis.

Richard has been trained in conflict coaching and mediation through Peacemaker Ministries and is a certified conciliator with Ambassadors of Reconciliation and Relational Wisdom 360.  He has taught various courses related to biblical peacemaking and plans to pursue further training and certification through RW 360 as a coach and instructor.

He desires to assist others in connecting the gospel to their personal lives, living out of their identity in Christ, and discerning the Spirit’s work in their ongoing story.
