Phil and Beth Bruns were converted into campus ministry in the late 1980s and have been tent-maker leaders most of their adult lives. As they became empty nesters, they created a ministry platform called Launchmini. They wrote a book called Launch Your Life for young professionals and supported small churches with classes and mentoring programs on the additional topics called Launch Your Family, Launch Your Teen, and Re-Launch Your Life. They retired early, five years ago, to lead the Blue Ridge Church of Christ in Charlottesville, VA. They are enthusiastic parents of four faithful daughters.
