Taylor Johnson

Biography

I graduated from Western Michigan in 2013 with an Organizational Communications and Business degree. Following that I graduated from North Carolina State with a Masters in Family and Youth Studies with a concentration in Administrative Leadership. For the last 12 years, I have been coaching basketball at some level. I have made coaching stops at Southeastern University, Western Michigan University, NC State, Grand Valley State and am entering my third season as the Boys Varsity Basketball Coach here at South Christian. My grandfather was a principal in Christian Schools for over 30 years before he passed away and Christian Education was always a part of my life as I grew up and graduated from Kalamazoo Christian. I recently married Brittany Heerema in 2023 and we live in Zeeland, Michigan with our dog Bentley.

Faith Statement

The greatest joy in life is having that personal relationship with Jesus Christ. Being able to live your life for Him and know that you have salvation through His grace, yet even though it is hard to fathom how special it is, it is the backbone of my faith. I am surrounded by young people daily and blessed with the opportunity to share God’s grace and kindness to them from my own life experiences. We all will struggle at times and that’s when our faith in Jesus needs to show up the most and can at a place like South. Being able to be in a Christian School and speak freely about our God is so humbling. I am very thankful to be joining a place like South Christian where not only my faith will grow, but others around me as well.
