About Will Langford

Will Langford has spent more than 40 years serving the local church, pastoring                       four churches across Ohio, Kentucky, and Virginia. Today, he draws from those                           decades of ministry to coach and consult with pastors and Christian leaders.

 

One of his greatest joys in this season is seeing how God is redeeming the experiences, successes, challenges, and lessons of four decades of pastoral ministry to encourage and equip those who are faithfully leading today.

​

Originally from Cincinnati, Ohio, Will earned a B.S. in History and Political Science from the University of the Cumberlands in Williamsburg, Kentucky. He later earned both his Master of Divinity and Doctor of Ministry degrees from The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, Kentucky. Throughout his ministry, Will has been blessed with opportunities to provide leadership in the local church, his community, and within the Southern Baptist Convention.

​

Will and his wife, Melissa, have been married since 1985. They have two daughters, two sons-in-law, and four grandchildren. For Will, few things are better than spending time with family. When he isn't coaching, consulting, teaching, or encouraging pastors, you'll likely find him reading, playing golf, or cheering on the Kentucky Wildcats.

​

At this stage of ministry, Will's desire is simple: to invest what God has taught him into the lives of pastors and Christian leaders so they can lead faithfully, remain spiritually healthy, and serve the Church well.
