Tony and Tami Cribb are Founding Pastors of Hope Church. Hope was planted with the goal of leading people into the life-giving presence of God. Today Hope is a growing multi-site church that is Christ-centered and Spirit-filled. Tony and Tami led Hope from 1988 to 2020 with an apostolic heart to plant churches locally and globally, host regional evangelistic events, distribute millions of pounds of food and humanitarian aid.
Tony has a BA in Finance from the University of South Carolina, a Master’s of Divinity from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary and a Doctorate of Ministry from Christian Life School of Theology. His practical approach to teaching the timeless truths of God’s Word is refreshing and encouraging.
Tony is married to his best friend, Tami, and together they have four children and seven grandchildren. Their next season is devoted to Hope campus expansion, mentoring pastors, global missions, writing, and spending time with family and friends.
