Rev. Sean Stanfield graduated from Westwood High School in Austin, Texas. He holds a B.A. from Tennessee State University in Professional Studies with a focus on Business, a Masters of Arts in Religion from Liberty Theological Seminary, a Masters of Religious Education from Liberty Theological Seminary, a MDiv in Pastoral Leadership from Liberty Theological Seminary and completed the UMC Course of Study through Emory University.
Pastor Sean married his wife Robin in his early twenties. He felt the call into ministry while working in the retail industry and living in Atlanta, Georgia, where he began in student ministry at Berkmar United Methodist in Lilburn, Georgia. A few years later after a move to North Georgia, he planted The Springs Community Church (A Wesleyan Church) where he served as their senior pastor for 7 years. They moved to Knoxville and he continued working in retail and also served at NorthStar Church in the Children’s ministry area. Five years later, they felt drawn back to middle Tennessee, where he began working as the children’s minister at Good Shepherd UMC. In September 2013, he was appointed to Westland UMC in Lebanon, for two years, and has had appointments with Good Shepherd UMC , Thrive Ministries, Dalewood UMC and Aldersgate UMC and Stratford Ministries since that time.
Pastor Sean’s wife, Robin is the Administrative Assistant to the DS for the Cumberland River District. They have three children: Emily (21), who will graduate from Lee University in December and has already been accepted to the Center for Youth Ministry Training with Brentwood UMC, Christopher, who graduated this year and will attend UT Knoxville in the fall, and Lindsay who is 10 and will be going into the 5th grade.
Pastor Sean and Robin are excited about the amazing appointment and opportunity at Rehoboth UMC, and "we pray that God through the Holy Spirit will do some amazing work in us, our church and our community. Please pray with us that God does some great things as we look to make God famous."
