Our Leadership
At The Village church of Christ, our leadership strives to follow the pattern given in Titus 1:5–9. Our elders are men who seek to be above reproach, devoted to their families, self‑controlled, and sound in faith. They work together to shepherd the congregation, teach the truth, and guard against error. Their goal is to serve humbly, lead by example, and help every member grow closer to Christ.

Minister

Aaron Erhardt
Aaron Erhardt was born in Lebanon, Kentucky, on November 17, 1980. He was the first child of Douglas and Mary Kay. His family soon moved to Louisville, where Aaron was raised with his brother and sister. Aaron graduated from Valley High School in 1999.
Aaron met his wife, Jill, when he was sixteen years old. They became high school sweethearts and married shortly after Jill graduated in 2001.
Aaron was baptized into Christ as a teenager and immediately expressed a desire to preach. After attending a Bible college in Florida for one year, Aaron began his first full-time ministry at age 19. He has worked with congregations in Louisville (KY), Lexington (KY), Taylorsville (KY), and Hot Springs Village (AR).
Aaron and Jill are the parents of six children — Skylar, Luke, Seth, Natalia, Sari, and Thad. Jill home schools the kids and is a Bible class teacher. Their family is very big into sports, especially basketball, and Aaron usually coaches various youth teams each year.
Aaron hosted a very successful call-in radio program in Louisville for ten years. It aired five days a week and was featured twice in “The Courier-Journal,” which is the major newspaper in Louisville. Aaron has also authored several books and workbooks that are used by individuals and churches around the world.
