Christopher Jones

Dr. Jones serves as the medical director of Hope Central Pediatric Primary Care and Behavioral Health in Seattle, Washington.

Originally from Eastern Washington, Chris received his medical degree from the University of Washington and trained in pediatrics at Loyola University in Chicago. He and his wife Kara specifically re-located to Seattle to serve the urban community. They are the proud parents of three young children and live in Rainier Valley. He has been married for over 20 years and has four children. Dr. Campbell's major influences have included the writings of John Perkins, John Piper, Tim Keller, and Francis Schaeffer. He has also been influenced greatly by countless relationships through the CCHF and CMDA communities. The most significant influence on his life has been Word of God through the Holy Spirit.

Kali Luecke, PA-C is a originally a farm girl from rural North Dakota. After graduating with a degree in chemistry from the University of North Dakota, she moved to inner-city Memphis, TN to do a gap year internship at Christ Community Health Services. During that year, God expanded her heart for the underserved and called her to PA school. She stayed in Memphis and attended PA school at Christian Brothers University. While in school, she had the privilege of running one of the student guest houses for Resurrection Health. She now lives with her husband, Danny, in Fargo, ND and works with the homeless population there as a family medicine PA at an FQHC.

Ben McKinney

Dr. McKinney currently lives in South Dallas and works at an inner city clinic in the south side of Dallas called City Square Health Services Clinic.

Dr. McKinney graduated from Baylor University and the University of Oklahoma College of Medicine. He completed residency in Memphis, Tennessee at Resurrection Health Family Medicine Residency.

Dr. McKinney and his wife have two young daughters. Ben was radically transformed by the Grace of God prior to entering medical school and began to slowly understand God’s heart for the entire world, for His name to be made much of, and his unique love for the orphan, widow, sojourner and poor, as well as the pharisee.

He quickly learned how medicine can be used to proclaim and demonstrate the gospel and show the love of Christ to these populations.

Bill Morehouse

""I'm a happy person who loves getting to know and being able to help people of all ages. I connect with

little children (and the little child in most adults) almost immediately.

During my 45 years of active family practice the things that really lit my fire while helping people regain wholeness were sharing in the joys and trials of relationships, pregnancy and delivery, and family life. I loved the challenges of medicine and learned administration by necessity.

Steve Noblett

Steve has been the CEO of Christian Community Health Fellowship in Memphis, TN since 2007. Previously he was involved in church planting and Christian leadership development in the U.S., the U.K., southern and central Africa, India, and Central America. In 1993 he founded City Builders Youth Organization, a youth-based Christian community development organization in urban Memphis.

"There is no greater field of need or opportunity than among the underserved. Christian healthcare to the poor is a major key in helping the church to break out of its bubble and reconnect the world with the message of Christ and His Kingdom." In addition to his work with CCHF, Steve and his wife, Victoria, continue to work with urban youth in an under-resourced area of Memphis. They have two grown daughters and a foster-son, all of whom love Jesus, and are committed to serving Christ by serving others.
