Dr. Jerry Dirmann

Jerry Dirmann is the Founder and Senior Pastor of The Rock in Anaheim, California. Alongside his wife Kimberly, he also launched Solid Lives, a ministry dedicated to resourcing and strengthening the Body of Christ by raising up leaders, disciplers, and pastors.

Pastor Jerry is widely known as the author and founder of Operation Solid Lives (OSL), a powerful discipleship system that has impacted tens of thousands of believers worldwide, both in local churches and online. Since 2020, his ministry focus has been on disciple-making movements and equipping everyday believers to live out the Great Commission. This has led to the development of his newest discipleship system, Jesus Disciple, which builds on the life-changing principles of OSL and emphasizes multiplying new disciples.

With nearly 40 years of ministry experience — including serving as the National Youth Director for The Foursquare Church — Jerry and Kimberly are recognized as bold, anointed teachers of God’s Word, known for their transparency, passion for discipleship, and sensitivity to the Holy Spirit.

Chanda Crutcher

Chanda Crutcher’s journey is one of purpose, passion, and profound service. Born in Baton Rouge, Louisiana, and now calling Huntsville, Alabama home, Chanda has dedicated more than 30 years to championing the well-being of others, embodying the belief that true ministry happens at the speed of life.

Married to her soulmate, Darrell, for over half of her life, Chanda’s love story began in friendship and blossomed over ten years and has since flourished into a partnership that grounds everything she does. Together, they are the proud parents of five children—Caleb, Cevyn, Caylani, Ckingston, and their youngest, 9-year-old Cyng Joy. Their family is the heartbeat of her existence, fueling her commitment to build a world where “intentional love” is the cornerstones of every interaction.

As an ordained Foursquare Minister and the Atlantic District Supervisor, Pastor Chanda brings spiritual wisdom and stewardship to over 250 churches across twenty-one states on the East Coast. She offers a steady hand and a compassionate heart, guiding communities with grace and care. But her service to humanity doesn’t end there. As the Founder and CEO of the American Senior Assistance Program, she has provided in-home care and geriatric care management to older and disabled adults, ensuring they are seen, heard, and cared for with dignity.

Chanda’s impact is perhaps most profoundly felt through The Legacy Center, a vision she founded and now serves as Board Chair. The first and only non-profit intergenerational day program for adults living with dementia and traumatic brain injury in Alabama, The Legacy Center is more than a facility—it is a sanctuary where people in their 3rd and 4th quarters of life are embraced, understood, and supported. Through this work, Chanda demonstrates her unwavering commitment to those in need, to those who have often been overlooked or forgotten.

At the core of Chanda’s philosophy lies a belief that has been refined over decades of experience: Relational Equity is the greatest form of currency. It is the bonds we form, the trust we nurture, and the legacies we build through human connection that Matters Most. With a quiet but unshakable strength, Chanda continues to inspire others, often noting that “Legacy is not just what we leave; it’s what we Live!”

Chanda LeNoir Mills Crutcher lives her legacy daily, guided by love, service, and a vision of a world where all people—regardless of age, race, or circumstance—are seen, respected, and embraced; one Covenant Community at a time.
