Welcome to Our New Pastor Paul Adkins and His Family - Beginning January 1, 2025
Hello, my name is Paul Adkins, and I am excited to start my journey as the new pastor for Greenwood Baptist Church, a congregation with a long history of loving Christ, growing families, and having a heart for outreach in their community. I am married to my wife, Jessica, and we have been blessed with four daughters: Emma, Daisy, Angel, and Seraphina. My personal journey with Christ began about 10 years ago when I was a young man starting a family. We began attending church because I wanted my daughters to have a strong sense of morality. In my youth, I had attended several different churches, but I never truly believed in Christ. However, as my family became more involved in church, I found myself desiring to read the Bible in an attempt to disprove the Word. To my surprise, the Lord, in His mercy, revealed the gospel of Jesus Christ to me, and I ultimately surrendered to Him as my Savior.
As a believer, I felt a strong calling to serve in ministry. I earned a B.A. in Biblical Studies from Clear Creek Baptist Bible College. I have served in the local church as a Sunday School teacher and as a pastor at a local rescue mission. Now, as the Pastor at Greenwood Baptist Church, my family and I are extremely blessed and honored to serve in a loving, close-knit congregation that is centered on serving Christ.
