We are blessed to have a leadership team, which is truly dedicated to Christ.  This team seeks to serve God, and His people, while doing life and ministry with those in this faith family, and our community.  They are disciples of Christ who make disciples.  They have a passion to know Christ and to make Him know.

Pastor Kevin Britton

Senior Pastor

I have served Kathleen Baptist, since June 2024, as the Senior Pastor. I am responsible for the overall ministry and operation of KBC. I am grateful to have wonderful staff and pastoral partners to help lead the various aspects of Kathleen Baptist Church and reach the Kathleen/Lakeland area.

I grew up in Irving, Texas where my parents raised me in a home that honored Christ and modeled healthy Christian living. They served our church and community in numerous ways, utilizing their spiritual gifts and skills. I professed faith in Jesus at 9 years old. God continues transforming and equipping me to participate in His redemptive work. I affirmed a call to vocational ministry at age 17 and God provides ongoing opportunities to serve in many ways, including children’s, youth, and pastoral ministry. I am grateful for God’s calling and equipping to serve. I am a hometown fan (Cowboys, Rangers, Mavericks, Stars) who roots for the home team in good times and bad (more bad than good).

Krista and I have been married since August 1993 and enjoy two wonderful adult children (Logan and Kaitlyn) who profess faith in Christ and follow Him in dynamic ways. We have one dog, Chewbacca, who loves short walks and hanging with the family. Our family enjoys adventures together, competitive games, and a good movie. We look forward to discovering the area, enjoying the region, and growing in our Lakeland Love.

Pastor Nathaniel Miller

Music Pastor

nathaniel@kathleenbaptist.com 

I have served Kathleen Baptist Church as the Music Pastor since November 2021. I am responsible for the music portion of service, the AVL needs of the church, as well as creative projects. I have loved working with this great staff here at KBC and serving alongside this praise team and AVL team!

I was born and raised in Palmetto, FL, raised in a Christian home and came to know Christ at youth camp in middle school. I went through a difficult season of life in high school, but out of that I felt the calling to music ministry. I went to college to focus on that calling and began vocational ministry in 2017 where I served bi-vocationally as the pastor of music and children. I am an alum of Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary.

Heidi and I are high school sweethearts and have been married since 2015. We have been in the Lakeland area since we got married. We have two boys, Jedidiah and Marshall John. Our family enjoys frequent trips to Disney world, putting together LEGO, and playing with our dog Bingo. Stop by my office if you ever want to talk worship, music, hunting, superheroes, or StarWars (especially if you want to hear about the time I got a perfect score on StarWars trivia on a cruise ship)! Our family loves living where we serve and desire to love and serve our church well and proclaim what Christ has done in our life.
