Ryan Nunez is the lead pastor at Palm Valley Church in Phoenix. He earned a PhD in materials science at Arizona State but, like his father and grandfather, always felt the call to full-time ministry. That call and passion for reaching people far from God led Ryan and his wife, Adrienne, to join three other couples in starting Palm Valley Church. Overt the last twenty years Palm Valley Church has grown to become one of the largest churches in the Phoenix metro area.
