Campus Pastor - Carolina

Jon Ross Fordree

I am a South Carolina native having been raised in Inman, SC. My wife, Emily, and I have been married since the Fall of 2019. We met at North Greenville University where I received a B.A. in Christian Studies and started my Masters of Divinity. We previously lived in the city of Greer where I served as a pastoral resident and worked as an admissions counselor for NGU but moved to Gilbert during the summer of 2021 to work at RADIUS Church – Centerville and aid in the discipling of the next generation. I enjoy anything outdoors like camping, kayaking, hunting, and hiking and reading books about things most people find boring (my current favorite is American Buffalo which tells the history of Bison in America).

Why I Love My Job:
I enjoy having the opportunity to come alongside parents in teaching and discipling students. Being able to equip students who will one day be influencers in their homes, communities, and workplaces is truly a gift.

Media & Technology Coordinator - Lexington

Kyle Fuller

Hi, I’m Kyle. I’m originally from a small town in Kentucky, but moved to South Carolina in 2008. Church has always been a part of my life and when I got to South Carolina it was difficult to find a church that I felt like calling home. That is until late 2016 or so when I visited RADIUS Church Lexington for the first time. It wasn’t long before I really felt like this was where God wanted me to be and so I began to call RADIUS home. By 2017, I knew I wanted to be more involved so I volunteered for the A/V team. A lot has happened since then in my life, some things that have been good and some things that have been bad, but two things have been certain through it all. My RADIUS family has been there to support me when I needed them most and that God is good all the time.

Currently I serve as part with the A/V staff part-time, working with all aspects of technology to help bring a distraction free environment (as much as possible) for others to come worship and learn about our amazing God. I love what I do and enjoy learning alongside other A/V staff and volunteers and glorifying God with all that we do.

Connection Coordinator & Ministry Lead

Kim Lyle

About me:

I actually met my husband at RADIUS back when we worshipped in a small coffee shop in downtown Columbia. More than 16 years later, we have 2 kids and a dog and love plugging into all that Lexington has to offer. I love coffee and I hate stepping on legos (which happens a lot in our house). I’m not a hugger but I do often show affection through sarcasm and smiles.

Why I love my job:

I am a firm believer in community as I know God didn’t intend for us to live this life alone. It is an honor to get to go to work each day with the goal of pushing people towards each other and pointing them to Christ. Plus, my coworkers are pretty cool (well,most of them are).

Fun fact:

I once went a whole year in which I only shopped at Goodwill.

Groups Pastor - Lexington & Ministry Lead

Jeremy Simmons

About me

Although I grew up in a family that prioritized going to church, my life was truly transformed at 15 when a friend proclaimed the good news of God’s grace to me. At that moment, my goals and purposes were totally reoriented around making Jesus famous and helping people know Him. After graduating from Charleston Southern University, Jesus sent my wife Beka and me as newlyweds (married in 2015) to North Carolina for seminary and then to Southeast Asia for missionary work (2018). He brought us back to America (2020) with a deeper love for himself, a fine appreciation of craft coffee, a conviction that the local church is always tied to God’s mission. Since coming on staff in 2020, we’ve had a beautiful daughter named Annie and incredible son named Luke.

Why I love my job

I’m honored to lead both the Groups Ministry and the Serve Teams at RADIUS Lexington by pastoring and serving those that lead and serve others for Sunday morning worship services, and throughout the week in our groups. As well, having a hand in shepherding Groups across the RADIUS Family of Churches is a distinct joy and honor.

In my off time you will probably find me by the grill, hosting people for dinner, or coaching the running backs at Saluda High School.

Jamie Baughcome

About me:

I grew up in western Massachusetts until after my junior year of high school. Then I moved to South Carolina with my parents and older sister. Soon after, I met my husband, Wesley, while working in his father’s restaurant.  I graduated from Gilbert High School and wondered a while in college deciding what to do. After realizing I was not meant for accounting, I  decided to pursue a career in education. I graduated from USC Aiken in 2006, got married and began my career as a first grade teacher in Saluda. Since then I have gotten my Masters degree and had two beautiful daughters, Leah and Savannah.

I gave my life to Jesus in 2000 and have lived to serve him since. He’s been my rock through times of trouble and my constant companion. My passion is helping others and being of service whenever I’m called.

Campus Pastor - Southside

Scott Shuford

About Me:

Jess and I met at Furman University and were married in 2007. We have four sons – Samuel, Luke, Eli, and James – and life on Team Shuford is as full as you can imagine! We spent the first six years of our married life serving as members of RADIUS Church in Greenville where John and Cheryl were instrumental in casting for us a vision of life in God’s Kingdom and the opportunity to now serve the midlands together is so exciting! After 15 years of ministry in the upstate through the Fellowship of Christian Athletes and Grace Church, we packed up the family and moved during the Summer of 2020 to plant RADIUS Church in Downtown Columbia. I serve as the Campus Pastor of RADIUS Church Downtown and we are grateful to be a part of the RADIUS family and on mission in the city. As a family we are always on the lookout for the next exciting outdoor adventure, challenging game, great movie, or new friend!

Why I love my job?

God has been so kind to our family and as a result we have always strived to pass His grace on to the folks around us while inviting them to join us on the great adventure of walking with God. To be given the opportunity to join the RADIUS family – one whose mission so closely aligns with Scripture and with that of our own family – is so humbling and exciting. To be able to spend my days sharing the hope of Jesus and encouraging and equipping people to grow in their relationship with Him is a dream come true!

I am a native of Aiken, SC and have lived in Lexington for 37 years. I was a photojournalist for The State newspaper before retiring in 2019. I covered everything from Gamecock and Tiger football to hurricanes. Carla and I have three awesome granddaughters. We love camping and exploring God’s creation.

You will typically find us hustling between ball games, band concerts and school events.

Why I love my job:

I believe that God’s Word is sufficient for every season and issue in our lives. It gives me great joy to point people to God’s Word for life’s daily struggles and challenges. Greater joy comes from watching someone apply God’s Word and seeing their life changed.

Andy Ott

About me:

Lannie and I have been married since 2003 and have three boys: Micah, Noah, and Jonah. I am a recovering perfectionist. I love details, systems, and building teams. When I take time off, you’ll find me coaching my boys’ baseball teams, catching a Fireflies game, or watching / listening to a baseball game. Our family is attempting to see a game in all 30 Major League Baseball stadiums together before the boys are out of college. I received my Bachelor of Fine Arts from the University of Cincinnati College Conservatory of Music in Technical Design & Production. Lannie and I have been involved at RADIUS since 2004.

Why I love my job:

I have to agree with Bill Hybels when he says that the local church is the hope of the world. It is a joy and privilege to help this local church accomplish our mission of making disciples, planting more local churches and being generous in our community and around the world. It’s a bunch of fun to come to work everyday and get to communicate with folks across the street or around the world, but even moreso shows how big our God really is.

I met my husband, Kevin, on a blind date in 1990. In 1992 we were married and opened a business in Wheaton, Illinois, where I oversaw all insurance billing and bookkeeping. After 25 years, we sold the business and moved to Lexington to start our next chapter. We have three bright and beautiful daughters, Teal, Kenzie & Merena and have recently become empty nesters. We love spending time at the beach and hiking in the mountains.
