Andi Andrew
Co-Pastor of Liberty Church NYC
Andi Andrew is your average ‘juggler’ like most women are; wife, mother, pastor, leader, learner, daughter, sister, friend, human being trying to work things out on the journey. She’s passionate about seeing people rise up, walk fully in the truth, and step into the freedom that we all have access to in Christ – body, soul and spirit. And it’s that freedom that is so apparent when Andi preaches with genuine passion and a disarming humor that helps the timeless gospel connect in a timely way with people from every walk of life.
Andi and her husband Paul moved from Sydney to New York City in 2010 to plant and co-pastor Liberty Church. Birthed with a ‘2020 Vision’ to impact ten communities in ten years by the year 2020, Liberty Church already has three thriving communities in New York City.
Born in Spokane, Washington, Andi met her husband Paul in Sydney, Australia where they lived and pastored for ten years. Paul & Andi now live in Brooklyn with their four kids, Ezekiel “Zeke”, Jesse, Finley and Samuel.

What is the best piece of advice you’ve ever received?
“Keep a thick skin and a soft heart.”
“Your children are only young once…The days are long but the years are short.”
What is the scariest thing you’ve ever done?
Moving from Sydney to NYC to plant a church with no team except our three children. We thought this is either God or we are totally crazy. Turns out it was God.
What’s currently on repeat in your car?
Well I don’t have a car (or a license—such a New Yorker now), but on my commute to work in the Subway it would be Amanda Cook’s new album: Brave New World. The album 10,000 Fathers, my fav song being Good Good Father; and maybe just a little bit of the Biebs—Where Are Ü Now.
