Seth Nathan Polk

Christianity, at its core, is about life with God. He is at the center of it all, and I am passionate about proclaiming the glory of God and sharing the good news about Jesus down the street and around the world. Kingdom multiplication through disciple-making and church planting is essential to the mission of God.

I came to know Jesus Christ at a young age and was baptized in believer’s baptism. I answered the call to ministry while serving in my home church in Florida. I believe the Bible is God’s Word and sufficient for everything pertaining to life and godliness. I am grateful for God’s grace and mercy, and I believe that prayer and the ministry of the Word are essential for knowing and serving God. The shepherding model of ministry has shaped and guided me.

I am blessed to serve the Lord in West Virginia. My wife and I have been married for over 33 years. We have three adult children, all married, and two grandsons and one granddaughter. We also have an unofficially adopted daughter in Moldova (Eastern Europe) who is married with two sons.
