Dr. T. Bart Kelley has been teaching since his late teens and has been in some form of ministry for 31 years. Pastor Kelley is passionate about Christ, His Word, and His presence. He began his official ministry with the Lord as a Youth Pastor in 1996 and then was voted in to be the Associate Pastor of Powdersville First Baptist Church in Easley, SC, four years later and the church saw a resurgence in every aspect of ministry.  He was then called as the Associate Pastor of Bethel Baptist Church in Westminster, SC, and was voted in as the Senior Pastor nine months later where he served for 9 years where the church thrived.  Pastor Kelley has served as Senior Pastor of FBC Barnwell since 2018 and the church has seen tremendous growth.


Pastor Kelley has education in and out of the ministry from several schools but in ministry has earned and been awarded a Bachelor of Theology, Master of Ministry, and a Doctor of Ministry. His life is dedicated to living by example and encouraging men and women how to live up to their full potential in Christ. 


As an energetic communicator, Pastor Kelley is known for his heart, humor, and creativity!  He has more than two decades of teaching and counseling, which enables him to reach others with humor, warmth, transparency, and strength.  He is a devoted husband, father, teacher, conference speaker, role model, and mentor.  As an effective communicator of God’s Word, Pastor Kelley is widely known for his practical and dynamic teaching style which helps people apply the timeless truths of Scripture to their everyday lives.


Pastor Kelley has been happily married to his wife, Tonya, for almost 30 years when they tied the knot in 1993. They are the proud parents of two adult children, Madison and Megan. 

  

One of Pastor Kelley’s favorite verses is John 15:5,  "I am the vine; you are the branches. Whoever abides in me and I in him, he it is that bears much fruit, for apart from me you can do nothing. "
