CloseKelly Green - March 2, 2008
Kelly Green's Testimony
Kelly Green grew up on the west coast of California with a single Mom who did her best to raise three children alone. Surrounded by alcohol and a dysfunctional family structure, Kelly learned at an early age to try to fill the voids in his life with those same "escapes" which were being demonstrated to him. Being a part of the counter culture of the late 60?s, Kelly fell into the spiraling lifestyle of his environment. Experiencing religion, drugs, and sex in search for significance, Kelly dropped out of high school and wandered seeking something to fill the emptiness of his life. In Oklahoma City, while visiting church with a friend, Kelly came to know the Lord at Nichols Hills Baptist Church. Those who observed the "hippie from California" transform were amazed to watch the saving power of God completely and radically make him a new creation in Christ. Going back to high school to get his diploma, Kelly was discipled by both a loving church, a caring couple and supportive friends. Not long after his graduation from high school, Kelly was called to the Gospel ministry in 1971. Kelly attended Oklahoma Baptist University for a few semesters and then moved to Mobile, Alabama to be on staff at Dauphin Way Baptist Church under Pastor Jaroy Weber. At this time, he continued to work toward his bachelor?s degree at the University of Mobile. While attending the university, Kelly met his wife, Beth Thomas and they married in November of 1974. Upon graduating from the university, Kelly attended Southwestern Seminary obtaining a degree in Master?s of Divinity. Kelly continued on staff in various churches for over eight years before being called into full time evangelism in 1979.
