Jim Bretthauer, DCE
Job: Director of Christian Education
Education: Concordia University of Texas
Hometown: Arlington, Texas
Favorite Book: Wild at Heart
Favorite Kerrville Restaurant: Taqueria de Jalisco
Favorite Vacation Spot: Victoria Canada
Favorite Bible Verse: Proverbs 3:6 “In all your ways acknowledge Him and He shall direct your path”
Favorite Part of Working at Hosanna: Presenting the Gospel to children of all ages and watching them grow in their faith…
the “ah ha” moment.
Life Story: Grew up in Arlington and never moved from there till college. I am the younger of two children in my family and I come from a family of educators. It didn’t take long for me to pursue some type of degree in education. I went to Texas Wesleyan in Fort Worth for a year and did an internship at my home congregation to decide if full-time ministry is the direction I wanted to go in life. I couldn’t run away from God’s calling, so I headed to Concordia University in Austin where I received my degree. For my internship, I was sent to Kerrville and have been enjoying it ever since. I enjoy playing golf, learning how to play the guitar, traveling, and meeting new people.
