Wes was born and raised in the Northwest where his father, Carl Hanson, has worked as a teacher and preacher for the past 40 years.  Wes came to a personal conviction regarding the truth of Christianity at age 16 after the historical proofs for Christ’s resurrection were presented to him by a counselor at Delano Bay Christian Camp.  Since then he has fully committed his life to the ministry of the Word, working with both Adults and Teens.  He and his wife Rachel, and their family of four live in Scappoose, OR where Wes has served as preaching minister for 14 years.  He is involved in the ministry at Camp Yamhill and frequently speaks for youth events and ministry conferences.
