Dr. Kurt Bjorklund
Senior Pastor
Kurt is the Senior Pastor at Orchard Hill Church and has served in that role since 2005. Under his leadership, the church has grown substantially, developed the Wexford campus through two significant expansions, and launched two new campuses. Orchard Hill has continued to serve the under-served throughout the community.
Kurt’s teaching can be heard weekdays on the local Christian radio and his messages are broadcast on two different television stations in Pittsburgh. Kurt is a sought-after speaker, speaking at several Christian colleges and camps. He has published a book with Moody Press called, Prayers For Today.
Before Orchard Hill, Kurt led a church in Michigan through a decade of substantial growth. He worked in student ministry in Chicago as well as served as the Director of Outreach/Missions for Trinity International University. Kurt graduated from Wheaton College (BA), Trinity Divinity School (M. Div), and Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary (D. Min).
Kurt and his wife, Faith, have four sons.
Senior Pastor Dr. Kurt Bjorklund continues the Sola Gratia series focusing on the doctrine of grace. He explores the concept of sanctification, examining how spiritual growth occurs through teaching, relationships, spiritual disciplines, and pivotal circumstances, while emphasizing that our transformation is ultimately God's work of grace rather than our own efforts.
