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 followed Him 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 more than 34 years. We have three adult children, all married, three grandsons, and one granddaughter with a second granddaughter on the way. We also have an unofficially adopted daughter in Moldova (Eastern Europe) who is married with two sons.
