Pastor Kent & Denise Bell

Senior Pastors

Pastor Kent and Ms. Denise have pastored at Bethel Life since 1999. They were married in 1981 and have 4 adult children, 4 grandchildren and 2 spoiled puppies. They enjoy spending time together, family and friends, the outdoors and serving the community and church.

Pastor Kent served as the Children’s Pastor starting in 1999 and was hired as the Church Administrator in 2002, where he served until he became Senior Pastor in 2003. Pastor Kent is a big John Wayne fan, enjoys reading, hunting, his horses, and supporting our mission efforts.

Ms. Denise holds a Local Church Minister’s License and is the Founder and Director of Loving HANDS Ministry, our special needs outreach, inspired in part by their son, Jason, who has Angelman’s Syndrome, a chromosome abnormality. Ms. Denise enjoys warm weather and the beach, watching a good “who done it” movie and reading.
