Stephen Carl, Pastor
I am the third of four children, born and raised in Bartlesville, graduating from High School in 1978, then attending Tulsa University and graduating with a BA in 1982. I attended Princeton Theological Seminary and received my Master of Divinity in 1985. I have served churches in Texas, Arkansas, Colorado, Florida, and Michigan. I returned to Bartlesville in late 2015 to help my parents. My father was a Presbyterian Minister and former Pastor of Good Shepherd Presbyterian Church. My mother was a Special Education Teacher in the Bartlesville Public School System. I enjoy teaching and leading people to explore the riches and depths of God’s incomprehensible love. I also have several avocational interests, including ceramics, woodworking, photography, metalworking, and writing. I have a guitar too and sometimes demonstrate my lack of musical talent.
Kristy Rodgers, Commissioned Pastor
Since 2006, as Director of Children’s Ministry, I have been called to help our children know the love of Jesus Christ and to grow as faithful disciples. Since 2009, as a Commissioned Ruling Elder, I have been called to do the same for adults. Whether coordinating VBS, selecting Sunday School curriculum, leading classes, or preaching, my goal is to get out of the way so that God’s Spirit can move through me and into the lives of the saints here at FPC, Bartlesville. It is a joy, a challenge, and a privilege to be in ministry here. I am grateful for my loving husband, John, my three wonderful sons, Keenan, Taylor, and Aaron, and my daughter-in-law, Alex – all bring joy to my life.
