Golan has served CFN in various roles over the last 17 years, such as Purchasing Manager, Director of Human Resources, Director of Operations, and Chief Operating Officer, from which he learned key lessons as a Christ-centered servant leader.
Golan credits his life and scholastic achievements to his family and a close cadre of spiritual mentors and friends who have challenged, inspired and encouraged him to be an exemplary Christian leader in his community.
Golan is a passionate worshipper of the Lord who loves people and desires to see them embrace their spiritual identity as sons and daughters of God. This third generation Lindsay wants to help steward an awakening for worship and prayer among the students at CFNI. Golan’s core mission is to continue training world changers at CFNI by building on his parents’ forty years of outstanding leadership as well as the founding principles of his grandparents, Gordon and Freda Lindsay.
Along with being an avid American football and basketball fan, Golan enjoys reading Christian literature, listening to worship, watching nature videos, working out at the gym, playing basketball, skiing and cooking. Golan is married to his beautiful Latin wife, Krissia Lindsay, who serves as CFNI’s Alumni Director. They are the proud parents of two beautiful daughters, Freeda and Victoria.
