My name is Jimmy Gilbert. I grew up in a Pastor's home and accepted Christ as my personal Saviour when I was 15. I met my wife, Stephanie, at Pensacola Christian College. After graduation, we moved to Indiana and became members of Bethel Baptist Church. I surrended to preach the Gospel at the age of 33 after years of running from the call. I am currently the Assistant Pastor at Bethel Baptist Church in Lapel, IN under the leadership of Pastor Dillard Cole. My desire is to plant a local, Independent, Baptist church in an area 20-25 NE of Indianapolis (Fortville/McCordsville). My beautiful wife and I have been married for 12 years, and we have 4 awesome boys. There are 3 things in life that I love to do: Spend time with The Lord, spend time with my family, and spend time with my instruments (guitar, mandolin, banjo).
My beautiful wife Stephanie. She keeps everything running smoothly. She supports me 100% and is the best wife, mother, and cook. She was saved at a young age and grew up in a Pastor's home as well. Our paths crossed in 1997 at Pensacola Christian College, and we have been together ever since.
