About Our Pastor

 

 

The most important thing about Pastor Josh McKinney is that he asked Jesus Christ to be his Lord and Savior one night in Pastor Winston Sweeney’s office during Vacation Bible School here at Fellowship Free Will Baptist Church.  The Lord saved him that day and blessed him to serve in ministry for 20 years, most recently as the pastor at Midfield Free Will Baptist in Kingsport for nine years.  He married his childhood sweetheart, Becky, and they have a beautiful little girl named Hazel Mae.  He serves Tennessee Housing Development Agency as the Real Estate Industry Advisor for East Tennessee, and has spent his whole professional career helping people achieve and keep the dream of home ownership.  He graduated with a Master of Divinity – Pastoral Studies from Liberty University in Lynchburg, VA.

 

Pastor Josh grew up at Fellowship, met his wife at Fellowship, answered the call to preach at Fellowship, and was married and ordained at Fellowship.  Returning to Fellowship to lead the church as its pastor is one of the greatest blessings and privileges of his life.
