Johnny Chambers WORSHIP | TECH | SENIOR LEADERSHIP TEAM
Johnny has lived in Orlando his whole life and moved to the Lake Nona area in 2009. He and his wife, Amanda, made GraceRiver their home in 2011 and a few years later welcomed their daughters, Macy and Sophie, to the family. They all genuinely just like to be together, whether watching movies, having nerf battles or going to the gym. Johnny's assignment outside of GraceRiver is in pharmaceutical sales. The Lord has used music and worship as a way of sharing His heart with Johnny, he started playing piano after attending a piano concert as an 18 year old. It was clear early in that journey that playing the keys was to be set apart for the Lord.
