Senior Leaders

Shortly after graduation, in an aim to become fulltime missionaries, they sold everything they owned to join YWAM in Colorado Springs. After 6.5 years with YWAM in NE India, the Lord spoke clearly that they were to return home and continue their ministry in the American local church context. In 2010 the Lord called them to re-start Harvest Church in Warrensburg, MO. Through a series of incredible and miraculous events, after 15 years of faithful and successful service at Harvest, God has called them to lead and restart Fuel Church, where they were set in June 1st, 2025.

Stewart & Millie Lieberman
Associate Pastors

In their journey, The Lord has led them to minister in over 40 nations, with a passion to see people set free from bondage and released into their destiny and calling as lovers of God and His children sent into a fallen world fully equipped! Before arriving in Denver to join the staff of an inner city church and help start a congregation, they lived in Israel, where they came along side to serve by helping to co-pastor a Hebrew speaking Messianic Jewish congregation in Tel Aviv. Today, they not only serve on the H2O team, but pastor a Messianic church in Golden, CO call Or Chaim. They have a heart for the people of God to experience His presence, embrace a biblical understanding of the scriptures from a Jewish perspective, a biblical worldview of Israel, and its significance and relevance for today. Together, they are also members of our leadership team.
