TRENTON BARKER

Coming to college, I had grown up in a Christian home with my parents and four siblings. I knew I wanted to connect with a church in college and very quickly found Resonate Church. I experienced true mentorship and community like I never had before and really learned what it means to be a Christian and what taking up your cross daily looks like.

Before my junior year of college, I went on a summer leadership project with Resonate Church, an experience that completely changed the direction of my life. I discovered a deep joy and fulfillment in ministry that I hadn’t found anywhere else. As I shared the gospel, discipled students, and watched God transform students’ lives, I felt a clear calling to pastoral ministry. It became obvious that this was the work I wanted to devote my life to, helping others know Jesus and follow Him wholeheartedly.

I currently serve as a campus missionary with Resonate Church in Moscow, Idaho. My heart is to see college students encounter the transforming power of Jesus, grow in spiritual maturity, and become lifelong disciple-makers who influence the world for Christ. Through evangelism, intentional discipleship, and small group leadership, I strive to create spaces where students can wrestle honestly with their faith, discover their God-given purpose, and take bold steps of obedience to God’s calling on their lives.
