Tyrell Haag was born and raised in Johannesburg, South Africa. He holds an Honours Degree in Theology (B.Th.) from the Baptist Theological College of Southern Africa. In the fall of 2020, Tyrell was called to Pineland Baptist Church and since arriving in early 2021, he now serves as the Senior Pastor.

He has a passion for preaching, the local church, evangelism, apologetics, city churches and cultural studies; all of this under the shadow of wanting to make much of Jesus Christ, that the lost might be saved and believers might mature in their walk.

Tyrell is married and has 3 young children. He spends his free time doing Brazilian Jujitsu, CrossFit, and has previously been a Krav Maga (self-defense) instructor.

As co-organizers of this retreat, we share a passion for fostering unity and brotherhood among believers. We recently recognized that this was lacking for many Christian men, and we want to change that.

We have a heartfelt desire to see this generation of men live out their faith boldly, and we are committed to creating a welcoming and impactful experience that will lay the foundation for deeper connections. Our goal is that our brothers in Christ return from this retreat refreshed, encouraged, and ignited in their drive to be Godly men!
