Kristi grew up in Southeast Indiana in a small town (Osgood, IN) and was an active member of Hopewell Baptist Church in Holton. She spent her summers at Southeastern Baptist Youth Camp (SBYC) and has a heart for camping ministry. It was at camp where she accepted Jesus into her heart and a few years later would hear and accept God’s call on her life into the ministry. She has a Bachelor’s Degree in both Youth Ministry and Christian Education from Indiana Wesleyan University as well as an M.Div. from Campbell University Divinity School (Buies Creek, NC). Throughout her higher education, she developed a love for inductive Bible study and always enjoyed her Bible classes. While in seminary, she spent some time doing an internship and residency in Clinical Pastoral Education at Duke University Hospital (Durham, NC) as well.
Her husband Chris and she are the parents of one daughter. As a family they love spending time together, whether it is enjoying different sports, the great outdoors, or watching a good movie! Over 16 years, Kristi served in various churches, in various positions, with varying staff situations.
One of the additional portfolios she has been assigned as a Region Minister that she is very excited about is Youth Ministry throughout the entire Region. Kristi is passionate about sharing the Word of God and the Light of Christ with that generation and looks forward to finding additional ways that we as a Region can connect students with Christ and one another.
As Region Minister, Kristi will serve primarily churches in the southwest part of the Region including the following Associations: Bedford, Brownstown, Crawford County, Curry’s Prairie, Decatur County, Evansville, Flat Rock, Friendship, Johnson County, Mt. Zion, Tri-County, White Lick and Union.

You are my God—I will give thanks to you!
You are my God—I will lift you up high!
Give thanks to the LORD because he is good,
because his faithful love lasts forever.
But he emptied himself
by taking the form of a slave
and by becoming like human beings.
When he found himself in the form of a human,
he humbled himself by becoming obedient to the point of death,
even death on a cross.
ABC-IN/KY Region Offers M28 Certificate in Theological Education
The ABC-IN/KY Region is pleased to announce M28, a certification program in theological education through Kairos University/Sioux Falls Seminary. This online competency-based approach to theological education from an accredited ATS university/seminary will provide participants a cost-effective means to become better equipped for ministry.
M28 offers two tracks of engagement:
1) A pastoral leaders track will provide clergy with broad exposure to important ministry topics through 12 courses. This track will prepare pastors for the pursuit of a regionally recognized ordination through ABC-IN/KY. As they advance through the program, students will work with a Student Mentor, the M28 Dean, and an ABC-IN/KY Region Minister.
2) A laity track will equip congregational leaders who wish to advance their knowledge and skill in ministry leadership. These students will be mentored by their pastor.
M28 is a partnership between Kairos and ABC-IN/KY. Kairos will provide the educational course content through a subscription-based delivery of classes. ABC-IN/KY will provide the mentor team and assessment of competencies as students advance through their learning pathway.
For more information, you may contact Rev. Dr. Dan Cash, the M28 Dean, or speak with one of the ABC-IN/KY Region Ministers. If you would prefer to have his phone number, simply call the ABC-IN/KY Region Office.
