  • Ginger Armstrong

    Ginger Armstrong

    A native Texan, Ginger lived all over the Lone Star State before moving to Kansas City for a job and meeting her late husband, Mark. They later landed in South Florida and entered a spiritually transformative season. Although Ginger grew up knowing about Jesus, it was during this time she began to follow and really know Him. From there, a passion was born, and she now helps women truly grasp who they are in Christ and equips them for the work God has prepared for them.

    She is humbled to be a mom to three of the most amazing humans and Gigi to five of the grandest kids. She now calls SW Austin home, along with her youngest daughter Lane, and six (yes, six) dogs that are equal parts wonderful and wild. Drawing from her unexpected life experiences, Ginger encourages women to believe their best days lie ahead and trust that God is not finished with them yet. If you are a woman on the Southwest campus, she wants to connect with you!

  • Carson Martindale

    Carson Martindale

    Carson is a native Austinite and has been attending Austin Ridge with her family since 2009. She is a proud grad of Auburn University (War Eagle!), where she studied Global Studies and was instilled with a deep passion for what the Lord is doing to reach His people on a global scale.

    When not at the church, you can find Carson trying new restaurants, traveling, spending time with friends, or curled up with a cup of coffee and a book. She is humbled and excited to be used by the Lord at the Ridge!
