Rev. Nicole Caldwell-Gross is a woman on FIRE for Christ! This flame lit her path to Mount Holyoke College where she received a Bachelor of Arts in Politics and Princeton Theological Seminary where she received a Masters of Divinity and was awarded the George L. Rentschler prize in Speech Communication. A gifted storyteller of the Gospel, Nicole is a sought-after preacher, podcaster, conference facilitator, coach and community developer. She has held diverse ministry roles as an associate pastor, non-profit executive director and denominational leader. Currently she is the first woman and person of color to serve as Senior Pastor at Noblesville First United Methodist Church. While God's call has led her to Dubai, India, South Africa and Cuba, her most meaningful mission field is in Indiana where she resides with her partner in marriage and ministry: Rev. Dr. Jevon Caldwell-Gross. They are outnumbered by their three children: Joshua Alexander, Olivia Grace and Isabella Joy. When Nicole is not preaching or podcasting, she's sipping an extra hot macchiato with a burger on the side.
