Welcome to my website!

Hey, I’m Andrew Yates—husband, dad, pastor, and writer. I’m all about faith, family, and finding ways to make an impact. I run EMBERFAITH.org, an online ministry focused on bringing scripture and encouragement into everyday life. I am also the author of Shadows Over Mapleton, a Christian fiction book about spiritual warfare and faith—because sometimes the best way to share truth is through a good story.

When I’m not working, you’ll find me spending time with my family, probably with a cup of coffee in hand. Life’s a wild ride, but I’m just here trying to follow where God leads. Glad you’re here—let’s walk this journey together.
