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.
