Brandon Cormier
Friday Evening – Session 1
Brandon Cormier was born in the Cajun lands of Louisiana and raised by parents who were committed to serving God and the local church. Upon earning a Bachelor of Science in Business Administration, Brandon joined Youth With A Mission, eventually serving on the mission fields of Calcutta, India, and Capetown, South Africa. Not long after, Brandon obtained his Master of Divinity from Oral Roberts University, and met—and married—his best friend Octavia. Since their nuptials, the two have labored side by side in discipling and mentoring both the young and old within the church and in their home.
Brandon has spent well over a decade in full-time ministry, having served at three different churches with a variety of roles ranging from youth pastor to interim director. Sensing a call from God in late 2018, they moved to Colorado Springs, Colorado to plant Zeal Church in the middle of the COVID-19 pandemic of 2020. In two years, the church has ballooned to over 1,300 people in weekly attendance and is a local expression of a multicultural and multiethnic church within the body of Christ.
Besides pastoring Zeal, Brandon is a sought after communicator who travels throughout the United States and overseas to train, equip, and inspire fellow Christians and pastors. Employing a broad variety of skill sets ranging from music, public speaking, and theatrical gifts, Brandon zealously articulates God’s Word in a transformational way that cuts to the core of his audience and pierces their heart.
However, Brandon’s highest priority is to his wife, Octavia, and their four (yes, four!) children, Riyan, Norah, King, and Niyah. In his free time, you can find him doing muscle ups and squats at a nearby Crossfit gym!

Chris Estrada
Saturday Evening – Session 3
Raised on the border of the United States & Mexico, it was in no time at all until Chris found himself in a lifestyle of drugs, alcohol, lust and trouble. Not understanding why his dad slept at one house and his mom at another sent him on a search that landed him at church. It was here he was invited to youth camp in the summer of 1999. This is where everything changed; Chris received the gift of salvation, experienced the baptism of the Holy Spirit and was called into full-time ministry all in one night! Chris Estrada is now a voice impacting generations. His roaring excitement and ability to address current issues with solid, life-changing truth makes him a dynamic communicator for everyone that hears him. He carries a mandate: to release courage and power into risk-takers and dreamers who desire divine turn-arounds. Chris passionately pursues ministering the gospel of Jesus Christ, developing leaders who want to transform society and consulting organizations to have a strategic and lasting influence. His books, curriculums, and materials come from his 19 years of ministry experience being a Missionary, Pastor, and Professor.
