Senior Pastor
Rev. Isaac Worley became our Senior Pastor in 2020. He leads our church each week as we seek to fulfill the mission that Christ has given to us to reach the people in Bethany, MO and the surrounding communities with the message of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
Pastor Isaac holds a B.A. in Biblical Studies (Evangel University), a Master of Leadership and Ministry (M.L.M) from AGTS in Springfield, Missouri, and is ordained in the Southern Baptist Convention. He is passionate about the Word of God and serving the local church through preaching, teaching, prayer, shepherding the members of the local church, and reaching out to the lost through evangelism.
Pastor Isaac is married to his beautiful wife, Sarah. Sarah is a CPA and does public accounting. On her free time, she loves to cook and go on relaxing walks! Isaac and Sarah have one baby boy, Judah Scott Worley, who was born on March 31, 2021.
Trent Crawford is our Youth/Worship Pastor. Originally from Trenton, Missouri, Trent got his start in the ministry at age 17 when he joined the praise band at Liberty Baptist Church, a local congregation in the Trenton area. Following his graduation from North Central Missouri College in 2017, Trent moved to Maryville, Missouri where he became heavily involved in the Christian Campus House at Northwest Missouri State University, serving both on the worship and leadership teams.
In the fall of 2019, Trent fully dedicated his life to vocational ministry and began his journey on sharing the gospel message, focusing on both youth and worship ministries. Following his graduation from Northwest, Trent served as the Associate Pastor at the Campus House for a full year, sharing in both the teaching, as well as worship leading responsibilities.
