Rev. Shane Beeson
Shane Beeson was raised in the Vineyard and Calvary Chapel movements in Southern California during the '80s & '90s. Vineyard Music played a pivotal role in stirring his hunger for music ministry. From there, Shane moved to Northern Colorado, where he eventually met his wife Elisa, had their daughter Eisley, and has since dedicated the past two decades following God's call on his life to music and pastoral ministry.
After traveling around the US in 2021, searching for the next step, Shane and his family found themselves in Scottsbluff, NE., where the Lord made it clear that The Rock Church was the next step of their Faith journey.

Rev. Mike Erdman
Mike Erdman was born in Scottsbluff, NE, in 1982. At 18 years old, he moved away to Laramie, Wy to start college and decided that he would live out the story of the prodigal son.
Many years were running away from God and doing his own thing until one day; he met a man who started to show Michael the love of Jesus through it all in Douglas, Wy. Michael began to study the Word and to learn who Jesus is and began to enter into the community of a local church in Douglas. He met a beautiful woman named Jamie, who eventually became his wife and started walking through the healing process. Together they have five beautiful and challenging children.
Michael started to say “yes” to Jesus in little ways, starting with volunteering on the worship team to play bass at the Gathering in Douglas, stepping into youth ministry, and helping with events. Small, simple things God has asked him to do have become stepping stones to lead him to the next place that God is leading, and that ended up being back home in Scottsbluff, NE, at the Rock as the worship pastor. I’ve never looked for the positions that I have, but God keeps leading me, and I pray and ask for His advice in all things, and He never ceases to amaze me in His plan for my and my family’s life.
I still have much to learn, and I know that God is always showing me who He is, but I am excited to see that He is doing great things. I Praise God for what He has brought me out of and for where He is taking me. God is Good!
Angie preston

After their daughter Nora was born, Travis received an excellent job opportunity, and they moved back to Scottsbluff and to be closer to family.
Angie never thought a position in ministry was in her future, but after serving in KIDZ Rock, God moved in her to begin working for The Rock Church. Angie is passionate about intergenerational education and mentorship and sees the power of learning through experiences. God is stretching and molding her beyond what she ever thought was possible, and she’s excited to see what God has for her in the upcoming years.
Jacob Crotsenberg
Jacob Crotsenberg grew up in Cheyenne, Wyoming. After living in Laramie, Wyoming, for almost six years, he took a job opportunity in Scottsbluff in 2019, believing he would only be here for two years or less. Thankfully, the Lord had different plans for him and called him to serve in ministry here in the Valley.
Jacob loves music, food, sports, and working out. He spent five years in ensembles in college, which gave him many opportunities for travel and leadership, four years in the restaurant industry, four years of high school sports, a lifetime of fandom for the Green Bay Packers, and has recently gotten into fitness, and tries to go the gym every day.
Jacob is passionate about unity and organization within the workplace, equipping young people to lead the next generation, and hopes to influence many lives in the area to come to know Christ as their Savior.
Matt Hergert
Matthew Thomas Hergert was born in Iowa and moved to the Scottsbluff area at an early age. He graduated from Scottsbluff High and went to college at several different places, never finding what he wanted to pursue. Matt came back to Scottsbluff after living in Colorado and Nevada to work in the family business. After several years that company was sold, and he moved to Mississippi to pursue other interests and find where the Lord wanted him. Matthew asked God what he should do with himself and was told “Bible School.” Matthew was surprised by that answer and didn’t think that sounded very exciting, so he ignored that message for ten years.
After returning home to Scottsbluff again and working in a call center for several years, the question was asked again, and the same answer was given. Matthew went to Bible school at Grand Canyon University and graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in Christian Studies. He works at the Rock Church in Scottsbluff as an Administrative Assistant and is growing spiritually and is serving others.
Matthew has a little girl who he adores. He enjoys music, the Denver Broncos, working out, and playing with his daughter, who is 7.
