A Little About Me

Richard Ritenbaugh

Born a Yinzer (Pittsburgh, PA), I have spent significant time in Southern California; Columbia, SC; Chicago, IL; and now the real Queen City, Charlotte, NC, home to my family since 1992. I have been married to my wife Beth since 1989, and we have four adult children: Courtney (and her husband, Kyle), Johnny (and his wife, Brittany), Jarod, and Aric, and now four granddaughters: Lily, Eden, Olivia, and Elara! As pastor of Church of the Great God, I spend much of my time writing, editing, and speaking. I am an admirer of J.R.R. Tolkien and his works, as well as an avid fan of Pittsburgh and Carolina sports teams.
