He has completed work towards a Master of Arts in Pastoral Counseling from Liberty Theological Seminary in Lynchburg, VA with six classes remaining.
Kyle has served in ministry for close to 25 years, beginning as a youth minister at Hillcrest Baptist Church in Jackson, TN. He and Julie also spent time serving as missionaries in Nairobi, Kenya.

He was ordained in 2008 by Highview Baptist Church in Louisville, KY.
If you were to spend some time with them in their home or in Kyle’s office, you’d quickly discover his love of black coffee, books, all things Star Wars and superhero related, and, of course, the University of Kentucky basketball program (GO CATS!!!). You’d also discover a full calendar with an active family and a love to connect with people. Kyle would love to spend some time getting to know you and talking about how amazing Jesus is over a cup of coffee soon!
