Wayne Hardy

Pastor

Wayne Hardy was born in Charleston, South Carolina, on July 20, 1963. His mother led him to the Lord at the age of four. In 1983, Bro. Wayne moved to Stillwater and assumed the music director position at Bible Baptist Church. In 1984, he married Lisa, his high school sweetheart, and they served in Stillwater together until 1993. He then went to Baptist Bible College in Springfield Missouri, graduating with a degree in pastoral theology. In March 1999, Bible Baptist Church in Stillwater voted to call him as pastor. He also currently serves as editor of The Global Baptist Times. Bro. Wayne and Lisa have three children: Daniel, Samuel, and Emmalee. He enjoys reading and outdoor photography.

Daniel Hardy

Youth Pastor

Daniel grew up in a Christian home in Stillwater, Oklahoma, and accepted Jesus Christ as his Savior at the age of five. When he was 17 years old, he began to feel the call to be involved in youth ministry and consequently went to Heartland Baptist Bible College in the fall of 2012. As teenagers, he and his wife, Sierra, grew up working on the same bus in the church bus ministry, and eventually began a relationship before attending Heartland. They were married in May of 2015. Daniel graduated from Heartland in the spring of 2016 and then went to work as a staff intern at his home church in Stillwater. In March of 2019, he became the youth pastor. Daniel and Sierra have a two-year-old son named Lincoln, and one on the way. Daniel is also an avid sports fan who loves the Oklahoma State Cowboys.

Michael Scott

Outreach Director

Michael grew up as an angry kid in a broken home. He served in the U.S. Army for three years. After serving in the military, his anger got him into some serious trouble, trouble that led him to prison for 16 years. While incarcerated, by way of a gospel tract, he trusted Jesus Christ as Savior, and God changed his life. He felt called to the ministry. This prompting lead him to get his Bachelor’s degree from Louisiana Baptist University. He later met his soon to be wife, Mandy Paxton, and they were married in the Fall of 2012. The Scott’s serve as Sunday school teachers in the Foundation’s class, as well as the Outreach director. He enjoys reaching out to people, working out, and anything that involves sports.

Levi Pelletier

College and Career Director | Baptist Times

Levi grew up with his twin brother and was raised by their single mom. At age twelve, he placed full confidence in Jesus Christ as his Savior. As a teenager, God both intensified his burden for people and spiritual matters and also took away his passion for other pursuits. Thus, in the winter of 2013, he recognized that he could only be truly satisfied in vocational ministry. He chose to be educated at Heartland Baptist Bible College in Oklahoma City, Oklahoma. There he received both his Bachelors in Pastoral Ministries and then his Masters in Biblical Studies. In the summer of 2017, while interning at Bible Baptist Church, he met his soon to be wife, Hannah Paine. They were married in the summer of 2018, and now have a three-month-old son, Grant. The Pelletier’s have served as College and Career Directors since October 2018. They enjoy camping, hiking, and traveling to America’s National Parks.

Al Roberts

Baptist Times

Al joined the Air Force in 1992, married his wife, Jackie, in 1994, and trusted Christ as his personal Savior in Phoenix, Arizona, in 1995 while stationed at Luke Air Force Base. In 2001, while stationed in Kunsan, South Korea, Al surrendered to full-time ministry at The Haven Baptist Church. In 2019, after 27 years of military service, he retired from the United States Air Force, moved his family to Stillwater, Oklahoma, and began serving on staff at Bible Baptist Church under the leadership of Pastor Wayne Hardy. Al earned a secular Bachelor of Science degree in Telecommunications in 1992, a Master of Business Administration in 2005, and a Graduate of Theology Diploma from Freedom Baptist Bible Institute in 2013.
