OUR PASTOR 

Chad Crawford

 

 

Chad Crawford, became the senior pastor at Harvest Baptist Church in August of 2012. He came to Eatonton with his family after serving as a youth pastor and assistant pastor for 10 years. He graduated from Pensacola Christian College with his BA in Bible in 1998 and from Pensacola Theological Seminary with his MA in Bible Exposition in 2000. Pastor Chad's love for God and for people is the heartbeat of his dynamic preaching and ministry. He cares for the church God has given him with humility, compassion, and grace. Each sermon comes after hours in God's Word, prayer, and striving to live out his message in his own life with God's help. He desires to magnify the Lord with his life in and out of the church.

 

LIFE VERSE

  "Yet if any man suffer as a Christian , let him not be ashamed; but let him glorify God on his behalf." 

                                    I Peter 4:16

 

In his free time, Pastor Chad likes to collect sports cards, follow Ohio State football and Reds baseball, and make memories with his family.  

 

Pastor Chad and his wife, Karen, have been happily married since 2000. Since then, the Lord has blessed them with 8 children. The Crawfords enjoy serving the Lord as a family and are very thankful to call Harvest Baptist Church their home.
