MINISTRY FOCUS

Ethan McCraney is a new member of the Cadence team. He is focusing on Partnership Development, the process of raising ministry funds, as he prepares for full-time service with Cadence.

FAITH

Ethan came to a saving faith in Jesus Christ at an early age. Growing up in a Christian home, he was privileged to be surrounded by role models who constantly pointed him toward the gospel. However, as he grew older, he realized that his faith was not his own. He was riding the spiritual coattails of his family members. During high school, Ethan got plugged into a Cadence youth group, where he was encouraged and mentored in a way that helped him make his faith his own. Although there have been struggles along the way, he strives daily to grow closer in his relationship with Jesus and hopes to serve Him well in life.

FAMILY

Ethan is the oldest child in their family and has one younger brother. His father is currently a chaplain in the Navy, so his definition of home has changed over time. Before his dad rejoined the military, they ministered within the civilian world for over ten years in Alabama and Colorado. Since his father reenlisted, Ethan has lived in Spain, Virginia, and North Carolina with his family. Ethan graduated from Liberty University with a bachelor’s degree in youth ministry. In the future, he hopes to attend graduate school.
