Meet our Pastor:

Ronnie came to faith in Christ as a middle
school boy.  He was educated at Bob Jones
University, where he met and married his wife,
Bridget.  God has given the Batchelors three
children: a boy and two girls -- Caleb, Katie and
Lauren.  Bridget homeschools all three.

Ronnie loves to spend his days off in the
Smokies, hiking with his family and he will stay up
all night with anyone willing to talk theology or
Gator Football.

The Batchelors are in their fifth year at
Basswood.  Prior to coming to Knoxville, Ronnie
pastored in Florida and Iowa.
