Chris Mcknight
Pastor/Teacher

Chris was born and raised in middle Tennessee and came to know Christ while on a Fellowship of Christian Athletes retreat in college. After graduating from Tennessee Tech University in 1987 with a B.S. in Business Administration, he moved to Chattanooga and worked in public accounting for three years as a C.P.A.

During this time, two major events took place in his life – the call to ministry and the gift of a wife. Chris and Kim married in 1990 and promptly moved to the Los Angeles area for him to attend The Master’s Seminary, led by Dr. John MacArthur. He chose TMS because of their strong stand on the Scriptures and sound doctrine, combined with their focus of training men for pastoral ministry in a church setting. Chris graduated with honors in 1994 by the grace of God and loving support of his wife.

For about five years prior to moving to Kerrville, Chris served Calvary Bible Church in Joelton, Tennessee as Associate Pastor and an Elder. While there he helped in all aspects of a new church and likes to call this the perfect follow up training to seminary.

Through a process involving the support of the other elders at Calvary, Chris decided in late 1999 to seek a full-time ministry position. Through contact with TMS, he found out about the need at Kerrville Bible. After a six-month, Spirit-led process on both ends, the elders and congregation called Chris to be their pastor/teacher.

He enjoys playing basketball, watching the Spurs win championships, playing in the Hill Country rivers, fun time with their kids, date nights with Kim and reading, lots of reading. Being a husband, father and pastor are dreams come true for Chris. By God’s grace he wants to be faithful to his calling in all three areas.

The McKnights count it a great privilege to serve the body of Christ at Kerrville Bible Church and they love living in Kerrville, “holding forth the word of life.”
