Kameron Farmer

Pastoral Assistant

Kam was born and raised in Southern California. He came to know Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior at nineteen years old. After his conversion, Kam developed a deep love for the Bible and sensed an internal calling to pursue pastoral ministry. He met his best friend and wife, Cheyenne, while in college. They both love children and their own reside in Heaven with the Lord. Kam is thankful for the many godly pastors who have influenced him, including his time spent in the pastoral internship at Del Ray Baptist Church. He has a Masters of Divinity from Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary and is currently pursuing his ThM in New Testament. Kam is passionate about helping Christians to love the Bible, remain steadfast under trial, and rejoice in the God of their salvation.

WHAT—is a PASTORAL ASSISTANT?

  1. ASPIRATIONAL: A pastoral assistant is one who (i) has a constraining, resolved, and deeply biblical desire to serve as a full-time pastor (1 Tim. 3:1), (ii) has demonstrated and been affirmed in the gifts of preaching and teaching (Rom. 12:7; 2 Tim. 4:2), and (iii) seeks to receive holistic pastoral training in the context of a local church and in the commitment of meaningful church membership (Rom. 12:4-5; Heb. 10:25). 

  2. QUALIFIED: Pastoral assistants do not always occupy a biblical office, but in the cases where they don’t, we desire that they meet the biblical qualifications of an elder, that they might soon undertake the work of pastoral ministry (2 Tim. 2:2). An elder is a man who meets the qualifications in 1 Timothy 3:1-7 and Titus 1:6-9.

  3. HUMBLE, TEACHABLE, SUPPORTIVE: Pastoral assistants receive theological training, practical ministry experience, and ecclesiastical leadership development, while also supporting all aspects of the church’s pastoral, administrative, and counseling ministries. They must therefore exemplify humility (2 Tim. 2:15), teachability (2 Tim. 2:2), and a willingness to serve in any capacity (1 Pet. 4:10).
