Meet the Team

Meet Our Leadership Team
A Legacy of Faith. A Future of Hope.
At Westside Church of the Nazarene, we aren’t just a staff; we are a family. Our leadership team is unique—many of our pastors grew up in these very pews and have returned to serve the next generation.

Pastor Kent and Linda Schwamberger

Pastor Kent & Linda Schwamber
Lead Pastor & Church Secretary
Serving Westside since March 1997
For 29 years, Pastor Kent and Linda have been the steady heart of Westside. Their ministry is a beautiful story of long-term faithfulness and deep-rooted love for this community. Since arriving in the spring of 1997, they have steered our congregation through nearly three decades of growth, always anchored by the mission of the Church of the Nazarene.
Having raised their twin daughters within the heart of this church, Kent and Linda are now enjoying their favorite role yet: being “GPA and GMA” to their two granddaughters. Whether Kent is sharing a message from the pulpit or Linda is welcoming you into the office, they are dedicated to making Westside feel like home for every generation.

Aaron Hubbell

Youth Pastor

Serving our students since 2020

Aaron grew up in this church, finding his own faith and calling within these walls. For the last five years, he has served as our Youth Pastor, bringing a relatable, “Big Brother” energy to our middle and high school students.
Because Aaron navigated his own teenage years at Westside, he is uniquely equipped to mentor our students through the challenges of today. Whether he’s planning a summer trip or hanging out at a local high school football game, Aaron’s mission is to help every student realize they don’t have to wait until they’re older to make a difference for God.

Seth and Rebekah Coleman

Seth & Rebekah Coleman
Family Pastors
Joined the Team: August 2025
For Seth and Rebekah, ministry is a full-house adventure! As parents to seven children, they understand the “beautiful chaos” of family life better than anyone. Both come to Westside with professional backgrounds in Childcare Education and Development, ensuring our kids’ and parents’ ministries are handled with both heart and expertise.
For Seth, this is a special homecoming—he grew up right here at Westside with Pastor Kent as his childhood pastor. Now, he and Rebekah are passionate about partnering with parents to build that same firm foundation of faith for the next generation.

Why Westside?

“We believe in the next generation because we’ve seen it work. From the 29-year legacy of the Schwambers to the ‘homegrown’ leadership of Aaron and Seth, Westside is a place where faith is passed down and families grow together.”
