Keith Plant (Pastor, Elder)

I’ve been married Tracy for over 33 years. I pastored a Church in Harold Hill, Essex for over 7 1/2 years, before coming to Stony Stratford in April 2012. Prior to becoming a Pastor, I was a builder and decorator for over 20 years.  How I got from that to being a Minster in the Church is a long and interesting story!  I continue to study at Union  School of Theology in Bridgend Wales  as I believe  one should never stop learning.

As part of my work as a Pastor I like to meet people and hear their views – and share the good news of the Gospel with them.

I aim to teach the Bible in a way that is clear and helpful. I have found the message of the Bible to be as relevant today as it ever has been; and it is the best and most important news that anyone can ever share with another person!

In my spare time I try to keep fit, by running and weight training.  My other interests are reading, watching good films – anything from period drama, comedy, Western, or Science fiction, as long as it makes me think, or at least makes me laugh!  I also like listening to a very varied range of music which includes some Classical, (Handel is a particular favourite), then anything from Fairport Convention to the progressive rock group ‘Yes’, with a bit of Ash and Duran Duran thrown in!

Gilbert Stephenson (Teaching Elder)

I grew up in Zambia in a Roman Catholic family and we attended Church quite regularly. I always considered myself to be fairly religious and tried to be obedient to the church. But it was only when I stumbled across John MacArthur preaching on Premier Christian Radio that I finally understood what the Gospel is all about. It was only then that I came to understand that salvation is by grace alone, through faith alone and in Christ alone. It was only when I came to true saving faith that the Scriptures were “opened up” to me and I began to understand what God wants us to know in His word.
