Kevin Watson

Kevin Watson serves 22nd Street Baptist Church as the Pastor of Discipleship and Student Ministry. He loves teaching God’s Word and presenting to Christians and non-Christians alike a vision of the gospel and Christian faith as true and deeply fulfilling and meaningful. In his dual role, he oversees all aspects of discipleship ministry, including Connect Groups and Discipleship Groups, and the youth ministry. 

Kevin grew up in Georgia, where he completed a B.A. in Philosophy and a B.A. in Liberal Studies at Georgia College & State University in 2019. Afterward, he moved to Fort Worth, Texas, to pursue an M.A. in Philosophy, which he completed in 2024, at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary. There, he met his wife, Brittany, and they married in 2022. As they considered where God would lead them next, they sensed God calling them to move to Tucson, where Brittany was raised. God led them to this position in 2024. 

Kevin’s passion in ministry is to lead other believers to become more confident and mature in their faith, so that they may lead those who do not know Christ yet to the faith. He desires to see God work in those ministries of 22nd Street Baptist Church to which he has been called through him. Kevin enjoys taking walks with his wife, playing video games, reading books, and writing. His writing includes academic research, blogging, and fiction.
