JT & Rachel Schulze

Jt and Rachel have the privilege to be involved in ministry for over 30 years. Their journey has led them to take passionate steps of faith in leaving their Kentucky home, family and friends to plant “Starting Point Church” in Prescott Arizona.

Jt’s pastoral ministry has taken him to California, Oregon and Kentucky working as a Youth Pastor, Northern Kentucky Area Director of the Fellowship of Christian Athletes and Outreach Pastor. His starting point happened on January 18, 1976, when he said yes to Jesus.

Jt grew in his new relationship with Jesus and realized he wanted to give his life to the two things that last forever, God’s Word and people. Wanting to be better equipped for ministry, he attended Multnomah University, majored in Bible and minored in youth ministry. Jt enjoys the journey of teaching the Bible and investing in wonderful friends. He loves the outdoors, and every sort of sport, especially with racquet in hand. He also loves reading and hanging out with his wife Rachel.

Speaking of Rachel, she too has a passion for Jesus since her early years. Growing up as a preacher’s kid (PK) was certainly an advantage, but she was definitely the crazy wild child. Her love for people, and her servant’s heart has won many. Rachel loves worship music, Mexican food, interior design and she’s crazy about her family.

God brought Jt and Rachel together in marriage in 2007 to form an “All IN” ministry team. Together they have five sons, ages 24-34 and six grandchildren. They are so excited to be part of this wonderful community of Prescott, AZ.
