Associate Pastor

Steven Beatty

I grew up in Hamilton, Ohio and met my wife, Erica, in seventh grade in 2007 when she invited me to my first youth outing with Bible Baptist Church. We went to the Festival of Lights at the Cincinnati Zoo, and I heard the Gospel for the first time. That night, I realized I was a sinner in need of a savior and placed my faith in Jesus Christ. My wife was raised in a faithful Christian family and had trusted Christ as her savior in 2000.

I grew up in the youth group at Bible Baptist Church and spent my teen years trying to be faithful to the Lord, as he was always faithful to me. I began attending church more frequently, reading my Bible, and going on church visitation—first because I knew I should, and later as the Lord put a desire in my heart to serve him as much as I could. I graduated Hamilton High School in 2013 and continued to work with our teenagers for the next several years, investing in the same youth group that built me.

My wife and I married in April of 2017 and were blessed with our first child in November of 2020, and our second child in June of 2023.

In January of 2023, I was granted the privilege of serving the Lord full time as an Associate Pastor in the church where I grew up.
