Raised on a grain and dairy farm in Alberta Canada, Glenn comes with a practical orientation to life. Growing up in a Methodist-styled church, he found the fullness of the Spirit through the 1970s Charismatic Move. Although Glenn had always liked church, he became motivated to seek more of God, when he was diagnosed with Rheumatoid Arthritis in 1972. Like the woman in the Bible who sought healing from all the doctors and only grew worse, this is Glenn’s testimony. Glenn completed a BSc. in Agriculture at the U of Alberta, in 1976, and an MBA from ORU in Tulsa OK in 1979. This started a whole new adventure for Glenn, culminating in ministry in the marketplace. For the past 45 years, Glenn has held leadership positions in the Land Development and Home Building Industry in both Canada and the USA.

In 1988 Glenn married Kelly, today a hospice nurse, and they have raised two children, Dr. Elizabeth Severns (32), and Michael (28) who is soon to enter full-time pastoral ministry. In 1994, Glenn and Kelly graduated from Rhema Bible Training Center. Today Glenn keeps busy with management consulting projects and is the Vice President of Montarise Developments in Montana.

Glenn currently sits on the Board of Directors for the Canadian Maranatha Evangelistic Association, with Dr. John Lucas, a ministry coordinating efforts of support for 28 missionaries worldwide. With a passion for Christian Education Glenn is also helping a new Organization called Kairos Academy Pathfinders, based out of Montana. This is a new entrant into the area of “Parent Lead Education,” providing Assessment tools and home-school support. Led by Dr. Robert Rye, Ph.D. from Harvard, this is an exciting ministry whose time has come.

Glenn attends The Real Church in Tulsa and The River Montana Church in Kalispell, Montana.
