Pastor Bruce Kotila

Pastor, Apostle, Teacher, Spiritual Life Coach, and Retreat Leader

"The passionate pursuit of my ministry for the last 40 years has been to help others experience the joy of discovering, and living out, their unique calling in life. This is, without question, my greatest joy in ministry.” – Pastor Bruce Kotila

After working in the marketplace for 11 years, Pastor Bruce Kotila was called to the ministry. His education began with a completion of a Bachelor of Arts in Communications, which was immediately followed by obtaining a Master of Divinity Degree from Bethel Seminary in St. Paul, MN. His formal education set the stage for what has become his inner drive to learn and his deep passion to help others begin transforming their own lives. Pastor Bruce has been trained in the prophetic (1 Corinthians 14:1-4), and has an apostolic calling with a gift of teaching – all of which are enhanced by his strong Biblical knowledge. He has more than 40 years of ministry experience, with 30 of those years serving vocationally as both a Lead and Associate Pastor, a Non-Profit Leader, and Discipleship Pastor.

As a part of his ministerial profession, he also acquired a great deal of experience as a Trainer. As a Cleansing Stream Area Team Leader and Restoring the Foundations (RTF) Trainer and Minister, he has reached thousands of individuals by training ministers and ministering physical, emotional, and spiritual healing and deliverance to others. He has led over 30 bi-annual Spiritual Retreat weekends as a Retreat Leader, and has spent 10 years mentoring and empowering leaders in cell church ministry.

Recently, he completed the requirements needed to become a “Coach". Through one-on-one and group Coaching Sessions, he is currently using those skills to give individuals the opportunity to move beyond ‘learning’ information to ‘experiencing’ life transformation. “My heart is to establish a spiritual community where people are trained and equipped to become whole-hearted followers of Jesus Christ. Specifically, they would understand, and live out, their true identity as much-loved sons and daughters of God and their unique calling that flows out of that identity.”

Pastor Bruce Kotila is a husband, father, grandfather, and the Founder and Executive Director of God’s Living Stones Ministry, located in Omaha, Nebraska.
