​Meet Pastor Jason Daughdrill. Since 2011, Pastor Jason has faithfully led Gateway Church, pouring his heart into building a thriving, Christ-centered community. He is grateful for the influence of his father, Gary Daughdrill, whose wisdom and guidance have shaped his life and leadership. Alongside Rori, Jason cherishes their three children, Trevan, Samuel, and Emmy, as well as their beloved dogs, Goose and Bishop. A graduate of Lee University in Cleveland, TN, Jason’s greatest joy is not in titles or achievements but in being a devoted husband and a loving father.
