"WHERE THE WORD OF GOD IS CHANGING LIVES"
(2 Timothy 3:16-17)
Founding Pastor of Almighty Word Church
Pastor Frank Burkhead Jr., a native of Jackson, Mississippi. Pastor Frank attended Jackson State University in Jackson Mississippi where he received a Bachelor of Science degree in Business Management. Pastor Frank received a Master of Arts in Christian Ministry degree from Liberty Baptist Theological Seminary. Pastor Frank was licensed in ministry at New Destiny Christian Church, and was ordained in ministry at Greenforest Community Baptist Church.
Pastor Frank founded and planted Almighty Word Ministries through Greenforest Community Baptist Church (GCBC) of Decatur, GA and Georgia Baptist Convention Send Network. Almighty Word Ministries was established as a ministry without walls to share Jesus Christ outside of traditional church facilities.
Pastor Frank has a heart for church planting and partners with the Southern Baptist Convention of America to accomplish this awesome mission for the Kingdom of God in Christ. He teaches a weekly bible study conference call on Wednesday evenings designed to reach people everywhere through social media. He has developed a social media footprint for Almighty Word Ministries through a series of online sermons and postings. He strongly believes this is the 21st century direction from the
Holy Spirit for sharing the gospel with people all over this world.
Pastor Frank fulfilled the Greenforest Community Baptist Church mission statement of “Growing Them Up and Sending Them Out” by co-laboring with a fellow GCBC Minister, Bishop Maury Patton who planted New Destiny Christian Church of Stone Mountain, Georgia.
Pastor Frank continued serving at New Destiny Christian Church with its founder, Bishop Maury A. Patton where he became the executive pastor. He assisted Bishop Patton in developing, and carrying out a strategic plan that focused on evangelism and discipleship. He also served as an occasional praise and worship leader, youth minister, and an evangelism leader before returning to GCBC.
Pastor Frank completed the Greenforest Christian Education certification training and served as a Bible Study Small Group Leader teaching an adult bible study class for more than 16 years.
Pastor Frank has a spiritual passion for reaching younger generations for Jesus Christ through recreation ministry. He served as a leader, coach and advisor in the GCBC Athletics Ministry. He assisted in reviving the recreation ministry by organizing leagues and working closely with the ministry director which led to an increase of youth and adult participation. He instituted the “Bible Rap” teaching of the Word of God with all coaches and youth in the ministry. Pastor Frank is the author of a recreation ministry handbook titled, “Sports Ministry for Christ”. The book was written as a result of seeing the need to provide churches with a guide on how to establish a recreation ministry.
Pastor Frank is married to Kathy Burkhead of Jackson, Mississippi. He has three children, Kymberly (Steven), Kandon and Kaleb, and two grandsons, Colin and Noah.
