My name is Jesse Land, and I grew up in the church and in a very musical family, so being the Worship Pastor at The Summit Church really feels like second nature for me. My love for leading worship really began in college, as I was a part of Christian student ministries and the music department at William Jewell College. In late 2007, God opened a door for me to step into ministry vocationally.

After helping launch a new service at my first church, then serving another church in Lee’s Summit, God brought me to The Summit in 2015. I love the opportunity to serve our church and see people grow in their expressions of worship. There’s nothing like seeing people connect with their Creator and Father in meaningful ways, and be drawn into closer relationship with Him.

I’ve been married to my wife Angie for 13 years, and we have two boys and a little girl (Weston, 7, Jerrett, 6, and Phoebe, 3.) I enjoy songwriting, playing golf, and everything Royals, Chiefs, and KU Jayhawks!
