PASTORAL LEADERSHIP
Pastor Nathan Deatrick
Senior Pastor
In 2010, the Lord called Pastor Nathan Deatrick, along with his family, to start a brand new church in Polk County, North Carolina. They have been thrilled and humbled at how God has worked over the past nine years from the start of
Crossroads Baptist Church to the present time.
Pastor Deatrick is the son of a Baptist pastor. He accepted Christ as his Savior in 1980 during a revival meeting in Illinois and surrendered to God’s call to the Gospel ministry in 1992. After Bible College he served as assistant pastor with his Dad in northeast Missouri.
In 2003, he moved back to North Carolina and was the assistant pastor at a church in Shelby for seven years.
Along with his dear family, Pastor Nathan loves to serve God and His people, and they are excited to have part in what God is doing at Crossroads Baptist Church.
Pastor Nathan’s desire is to make Christ preeminent through dynamic Bible preaching and faithful, genuine, and compassionate pastoral leadership.
