Our Pastor

Apostle Chris A. Esteves

Dr. Chris A. Esteves was born in New Orleans, Louisiana, in 1961 and moved with his family to California in 1963, where he was raised in South Central Los Angeles. After graduating from high school, he proudly served in the United States Air Force and later built a successful career as a Biomedical Engineer. In November 1984, Dr. Esteves answered God’s call to ministry, beginning a lifelong mission of preaching the Gospel and serving others. He founded Life Way Church in Pomona in 1990 and expanded the ministry by establishing Life Way Church in Rancho Cucamonga in 1998. Under his leadership, the church continued to grow, culminating in the construction of a 1,000-seat sanctuary in 2005. Today, as Senior Pastor, Apostle Chris is known for delivering dynamic, practical, and life-changing messages that inspire people to grow in their relationship with Jesus Christ and walk confidently in their God-given purpose.
