Meet Our Staff

Scott F. Guinn

PASTOR OF CARE AND ADULT MINISTRIES
 
I was born on January 7, 1964, in Tacoma, Washington, the 7th and last child in a mixed family. I attended Tacoma Baptist School, where I accepted Christ in kindergarten at a chapel service where a Gospel magician and ventriloquist was the guest speaker. At age 7, I was baptized. I felt called to be a pastor when I was 8, and this was reaffirmed at church camp when I was 14. I ministered in various capacities as a volunteer for many years, including as a youth minister, worship leader, college group leader, Sunday school and AWANA, etc. I moved to Idaho in 1989 and married Kristi (who was raised in Star) on September 7, 1991. In 2005 I was asked to be the part-time lead pastor at Christian Life Fellowship Boise (where we had been attending for 11 years), and in 2010 I was moved to full-time.
 
Kristi and I had been unable to conceive or adopt, and we assumed God’s plan was for us to be childless. But then, in June of 2011 (nearly 20 years into our marriage), I received an email regarding a young local woman who had gone to get an abortion but was turned away because she was too far along under Idaho law. She was looking for someone who would be willing to adopt her soon-to-be-born son. Kristi and I were thrilled to offer to be the child’s parents. Our son, Josiah Scott Guinn, was born on October 12, 2011, at West Valley Medical Center in Caldwell. The hospital gave us a room just down the hall from the birthmother. Josiah spent his first night in our room and we took him home the next day. The adoption was finalized on December 15, 2011.
 
I love God, God’s Word, and God’s people, and I am excited about ministering to His flock at Lakeview.

Dustin Yonkovich

PASTOR OF CHILDREN’S MINISTRIES
 
My family and I moved to Idaho from Texas in the fall of 2017. We have fallen in love with Idaho and Idahoans. It is a great joy to serve here at Lakeview. I graduated with a Master’s degree in ministry from Dallas Theological Seminary and have been involved in children’s ministry since 2005. I have been married to my beautiful bride, Jala, for over fifteen years. We have two children, Aiden and McKenna. Jala, and I both have a passion to see children grow in their relationship with the Lord and have served together in ministry since before we were married.

My heart is to see kids reached with the Gospel, grow in their faith, and to minister to parents in raising their children. To this end, we reach out to our schools with after school clubs, providing for the physical needs of families, and doing several events that reach out to children and families. Similarly, in the church, I seek to provide a dynamic, Bible based children’s ministry where kids and families are excited to come.

Outside of ministry, I love the outdoors. I enjoy hiking, backpacking, and camping with my family. When I’m not toasting a marshmallow around a camp fire, you can usually find me in my garden.

I am currently the Facilities Manager here at Lakeview Bible Church and enjoy serving in this capacity.  My wife Paula and I have been members of this church for 12 years. We have served as Sunday School teachers, nursery helpers, and I have served on the Board as a Deacon. 
 
I am retired and enjoy God’s beauty of the great outdoors. I love to fish, hunt, bike, hike, and ski. Paula and I have two adult married children and 5 grandchildren who we love to spend our time with. We are blessed that they live in the area.

Jennifer Good 

CREATIVE ARTS ASSISTANT
 
I have the opportunity to serve as the Creative Arts Assistant at Lakeview Bible Church, as well as lead in the Kids’ Ministry on a monthly basis. Since I was young, I’ve had a heart for kids and a love for creating. I was born and raised in Idaho and graduated from the University of Idaho with a bachelor degree in Education.
 
In 2012, I married my high school sweetheart and we are raising three wonderful boys on an alfalfa farm in Murphy, Idaho. It is our deepest desire to glorify God as we train our children, serve our church body and love others.
 
When I’m not chasing kids, I enjoy DIY projects, thrift shopping and tractor rides with my hubby.
