About

I am the Lead Pastor of Mars Hill Church Orange County.

This is my personal blog, though I also occasionally write in other places. I have written for Transworld Skateboarding Magazine, Alternative Press, and Meanstreet Magazine. I also contributed to the liner notes for Thrice’s Vheissu album and If We Could Only See Us Now DVD.

This is my bio from The Resurgence:

A native of Orange County, California, Nick Bogardus spent a decade in the music industry. Eight of those years he ran New Noise Management, an artist management company that oversaw the careers of bands like Thrice, Cold War Kids, and Matt Costa. He took his experience to Biola University as an adjunct professor, creating and teaching the school’s first music management class. Nick and his wife Kim then spent a year and half doing ministry in Mongolia before moving to Seattle. In Seattle, Nick served as the the Director of PR/Media Relations at Mars Hill. He, his wife, and daughter have now moved back to Orange County to plant Mars Hill Church Orange County.
