New pastor has been found! He will join us in January!
Lead Pastor
Associate/Youth/Media Pastor
TJ Blount
I
love my job/calling. I have been working
with youth since 2001 and still love it.
I was born and raised in Oklahoma and moved to the Wichita area in
2008. I have two kids, a son Daxton, eight
years old, and a daughter Zoe, six years old.
In my spare time I love watching Marvel movies and am a super fan of
Captain America. I love learning about
the universe and this amazing world our Creator made for us. Here at Sharon I have three main goals.
First, is to teach and train youth to love God with all their HEART, SOUL, and
MIND; each of which are very important. My
second goal is to raise youth that are active members of the body of
Christ. Lastly, is to have fun doing all
this. We all need to learn that
following Christ can be fun. From trips,
movies, games, and simply hanging out; we accomplish this!
Worship Ministry Coordinator
Dana Spurgeon
“How good it is to sing praises to our God, how pleasant and fitting to praise him!” (Psalm 147:1)
Worship and praise is our response to God for Who He is and what He has done for us. What a joy to be part of that here at Sharon Baptist Church. I’m grateful for the opportunity to serve in the area of music ministry. I became a Christian at the age of eight. When I was 11, my elementary music teacher asked me to accompany her solo for the morning worship service. Discovering that I could play piano for the Lord and His church was a life-changing experience, and I’ve been involved in church music ever since! God graciously allowed me to pursue a career in music education. I have a Bachelor of Music Education degree, Master of Music Education degree and a PhD in Choral Music. Over a span of about 25 years, I have taught at the middle school, high school and college levels, and given private lessons in piano and voice. God also graciously gave me my husband, Allen, and we’ve been members of Sharon for almost 20 years. I’ve played the organ and piano here almost that many years, then joined the staff in March, 2015. For me, there’s no better way to serve God and His people. It IS good when the people of God sing His praise.
Children's Ministry Coordinator
Becky Stanfield
Sharon Baptist Church has been the church home for my husband and I since 2008. We love the people of this church and raising our children here. My family enjoys time together bike riding, playing games, reading, asking questions, and finding new things to do. After the birth of our third daughter in 2016, I resigned from my position as a middle school science teacher in order to spend more time with our little ones and substitute teach. A few months later, I accepted the opportunity to serve as the Interim Children’s Ministry Coordinator. During my time in this position, I hope to bring our church closer to the families in the community and provide a safe, fun, learning environment for the children that are a part of SBC!
