Andrew grew up in rural south Alabama, where the humidity is high, the clay is red, and the tea is sweet! Realizing the gravity of his sin and need of a Savior, he came to have a personal relationship with Jesus at age 6. As his faith matured in college, Andrew began to entertain the thought of vocational gospel ministry. Andrew is passionate about bringing his business and spiritual gifts together. He has previously served the church as a Bible study teacher, summer camp counselor, and student ministry assistant. He met Marisa in college in 2007 and they were married in 2009. They have one daughter, Laney. The Hardimans love traveling, playing board games, spending time with Laney and cheering Auburn football! They are extremely excited about being in Montana and experiencing the great plans God has in store for the city of Helena. Andrew is a 2014 graduate of the Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary, where he received the Masters of Divinity degree in Christian ministry. He also holds a bachelor’s degree in Accounting from the University of Alabama in Huntsville.
