Ken Miller

Lead Pastor

Pastor Ken came to BCCC in December of 1998. Back then, the church was comprised of only a few families that met in an old barn that was converted to a community center. Since that time, we have made great strides in defining our purpose as a church and pursuing that purpose to strategically reach our community with the Good News of the Gospel. Pastor Ken's gifts and ministry experience are diverse and have enabled BCCC to grow and become an established, thriving ministry in our community.

Rich Johnson

Pastor of Community Life and Care

With an extensive background in both church ministry and executive business management, Pastor Rich has a unique set of gifts and experience which enable him to lead our Community Life and Care ministries. His role primarily entails the assimilation and sanctification of the church body. As such, he provides oversight, development, and leadership to various ongoing small groups. Additionally, he provides counsel and pastoral care to the congregation as needs arise.

Micah Portis

Pastor of Youth

Having been raised in a Christian home, Pastor Micah was involved in church from a young age. However, it wasn’t until high school that he genuinely embraced the gospel and became a born-again believer. From that point on, his life looked drastically different: studying Scripture, sharing his faith, and seeking to make disciples. This passion led Micah to pursue Biblical Studies and Masters in Divinity degrees at Cedarville and Cairn University. Today, Micah has a heart for discipleship, teaching, shepherding, pastoral counseling, and—of course—youth ministry.

Scott Kelly

Pastoral Assistant

Scott’s role at the church is multifaceted. Along with leading the Young Bucks youth ministry, he also develops and teaches various adult small groups, assists in the execution of media and communications projects, and provides practical support to the pastors, elders, and deacons in diverse aspects of the day to day church operations.

Rebecca Benjamin

Music & Worship Ministries Director

Rebecca has a reputation for always having a song for everything and if people didn’t think she was crazy, she would prefer to sing at all times! She was hired by BCCC in 2009 and has enjoyed the experience immensely. In addition to this role, Rebecca teaches private piano and voice lessons, teaches a music and drama integration course at PBU, has a solo concert ministry, leads worship at retreats and also sings at various other venues.
