ALīV Leaders
Brian A. Rush
Pastor Brian A. Rush is a devoted servant of the Lord whose greatest joy is loving God and loving people. As a caring husband and father, Pastor Brian’s heart beats for building strong, healthy families and helping others do the same. He believes that when our homes are rooted in God’s love and guided by His Word, they become a light that blesses our communities and draws others to the hope we have in Jesus.
Pastor Brian is deeply passionate about walking alongside believers in discipleship. He strives to encourage them to grow deeper in their faith and to share the hope of the Gospel with others. With degrees in both business and theology, he combines practical wisdom and biblical truth to help strengthen the church and nurture a loving, Christ-centered community.
His prayer is that everyone he serves would experience the abundant life God has promised; with the hope that we become a light that cannot be hidden—so that together, we can share His love and change the world.
Lead Pastor

Pastor Brian & Pari are more than leaders, we are a team, and we count it a blessing to walk this faith journey alongside you.
At ALIC CLT, leadership is not about position or platform; it is about presence, faithfulness, and walking together in obedience to Christ. Our ALīV Team exists to serve, shepherd, and disciple with humility, love, and integrity—seeking to reflect the heart of Jesus in everyday life.
We believe the abundant life Christ promises is lived out best in authentic relationships, shared discipleship, and faithful obedience to God’s Word. As a leadership family, we are committed to praying with you, growing with you, and walking through life together—celebrating victories, standing firm in trials, and trusting God in every season.
Our desire is not to lead from a distance, but to journey together as brothers and sisters in Christ—rooted in Scripture, formed by love, and united in purpose. We are grateful for the opportunity to serve alongside you and to be part of what God is building through the ALIC CLT family.

Vision
To be a word-based international ministry aimed at imparting the abundant life of Christ into every area of peoples' lives, while discipling them through the accurate teaching and proclamation of God's word.
Mission
Agapé: We abide in God’s love in such a pure, powerful, and genuine way that we become a reflection of His nature to all those we encounter.
Life: We abide in the abundant life of Christ; and teach others to do the same. As ambassadors of the Kingdom
of God, we carry His abundant life wherever we go.
Integrity: We are built on a solid foundation of excellence, love, faithfulness, and truth. Our lives reflect the very principles we teach. We strive to create avenues of communication that are effective, open, honest, genuine, safe, and rooted in love.
Values: We are family, serving one another in love. We promote a healthy balance between ministry, personal life, and individual calling. Our mission is to nurture strong marriages and families, to uplift women who feel devalued or forgotten, to strengthen men who feel trapped or hopeless, and to help those who have been disadvantaged or abandoned within our society.
