Keith has served at Norfleet since November 2021.
Keith says, "I grew up as a Baptist minister's kid, and I accepted Christ as my personal Savior at a revival service in the spring of 1981, at the age of almost 12. Then God called me to follow in my dad's steps and serve Him in vocational ministry at the age of 17 at The Great Passion Play in Eureka Springs, Arkansas. I have served in some form of church ministry since 1988, beginning with music/worship, then adding youth ministry, church planting, and moving into the lead preaching/pastor role in 2012. Jolee (pictured) and I have been married since November 1988, and God has blessed us with 2 grown daughters and 2 granddaughters."
Jolee loves quilting/sewing and the family pets, and she has quite a collection of sewing machines. Keith loves music, a good movie, and coffee (he collects mugs-stop by his office sometime and see his collection). Together they love the church, KU Jayhawks basketball, KC Chiefs football, a night at the theater, collecting Christmas ornaments, and family.
