Pastor Kevin, can you tell us how God called you to ministry and about the places you have served, as well as about your family?
“God called me to the Gospel ministry on Easter Sunday 1996 while I was serving as Minister of Music of the New Hope Baptist Church (Pastor E.J. Tyson) of Vernon, TX. In Feb. 97, I united with the Greater Mt. Olive Baptist Church OKC (Pastor A. Glenn Woodberry) where I served as an Associate Minister serving sick and shut- ins, musician (Director of Jr. Mass Choir), Sunday School instructor for Young Adults, Director of the Young Adult Ministry from 2002-2006 and developed and conducted the Spring Break Abstinence and Music Workshop from 2003-2008.”
“I am married to Tanya Moss since July 2008, and together we share 5 children (mostly grown). Michea Moss (deceased), Samuel Moss (16), Kristin (35), Kelli (33), and Kym (30). We have one son, Israel Vaughn, that we love as our own.”
How is the Lord blessing and working through your church now?
“How befitting that you would ask me that! The Lord is amazing as my wife and I have just been endorsed by SEND (Church Planting) Network on January 1, 2025 – To God be the Glory!”
“The Lord began transitioning us in May of 2024, and placed on my heart that we needed to replant the Antioch Fellowship Baptist Church. I did not know where, but God began to lead me. We have moved to our new location in Spencer, Oklahoma.”
“He has already begun to remake and redevelop our ministry, starting with our youth. We baptized our 3rd and 4th young person on Sunday, Jan 5, 2025, as we have the ability to teach our children about allowing Jesus to lead their lives more personally in our new location.”
“We are birthing small groups and beginning in Feb. 2025, we will begin a small group on relationships that will run concurrently with our Sunday School on the 2nd and 4th Sunday at 9:45 a.m. We are also providing a Wednesday Noonday Prayer and Bible Study and will be opening it up to the community, led by our Minister of Prayer and Visitation, Rev. Robert Proutt.”
“The half of what the Lord is going to do is yet to be seen, but we believe beyond a shadow of doubt that the Lord has sent us there to serve Him and reach the lost for Christ. The icing on the cake is our new endorsement with SEND Network. As Rusty Gunn said to us, ‘Get ready for the ride of your lives!’”
What is your ‘Life verse’ or Bible passage that has held a special significance in your life and ministry?
“I have a lot of ‘favorite’ verses or texts, but the passage that has been the most impactful to me is where the Lord directed me when my daughter was murdered in April 2015, the 77th Psalm, specifically verses 1-15. And then top it off with Romans 8:28, knowing that no matter what comes our way, good, bad, happy or sad, God can and will use it for our good.”
Can you talk about the unique fellowship we share among Oklahoma Baptists?
“From the ministry of service to the prayers of comfort and helps, Oklahoma Baptists have been a breath of fresh air to me. I am deeply grateful for the unique fellowship we share as Oklahoma Baptists. It is a bond rooted in our shared faith, united purpose, and unwavering commitment to spreading the Gospel. Together, we uplift one another through prayer, encouragement and collaboration, creating a community that embodies the love of Christ. Oklahoma Baptists are a constant source of inspiration and strength, reminding me of the power of unity in serving in God’s Kingdom.”
