Ben Johnston

Ben Johnston came to Perth in 2012 to serve as the Lead Pastor of Subiaco Church. In 2023, after 37 years of pastoral ministry, Ben began a new ministry called Spero Ministries (speroministries.com) to minister to pastors and other gospel minsters. The mission of Spero (from the Latin word for “hope”) is to encourage and strengthen ministers of the gospel through pastoral care and through the building of cohorts where we “may spur one another on toward love and good deeds” (Heb. 10:24). Ben also serves part-time with Trinity Theological College as the Development Officer.

Ben and his wife, Sheri, have three married children and four grandchildren. He is ordained with the Presbyterian Church in America and is an associate Teaching Elder with the Westminster Presbyterian Church of Western Australia.
