Ed & Emily Hartman

Ed and Emily’s life together has been anything but ordinary.  After Ed lost his first wife to cancer, leaving him with four young children to raise, he hired Emily to be their nanny, and then took her off payroll and married her.  They began their journey together in Kosciusko, MS where Ed was the senior minister of First Presbyterian Church, then spent almost a decade in Brasov, Romania, leading a church planting team for Mission to the World.  Since leaving Romania, they continued to invest in church planting and missions as they work together in leadership development and renewal with pastors, church leaders, church planters and missionaries and their wives in Ed’s role as Minister of Mission and Outreach at First Presbyterian Church in Jackson, MS.  

Emily spent the last ten years walking alongside wives of ministers in her work as coach, trainer and group leader with Parakaleo and the Mid-South Church Planting Network. Emily recently completed a master’s degree in counseling from the Townsend Institute. 

In 2022, Ed and Emily launched Kingstone Partners, a non-profit ministry designed to serve, strengthen and support gospel-rooted ministry leadership couples for the resilience and flourishing of their marriages and ministries.  

Ed is a graduate of Columbia International University; Reformed Theological Seminary (MDiv); and Westminster Seminary in California (DMin).  Emily is a graduate of the University of Mississippi and Concordia University (MAC).
