First Baptist Clermont Leadership

First Baptist Clermont is blessed to have a leadership team who are truly dedicated to Christ and accomplishing His will. Following are brief bio's of our leadership team and their qualifications for ministry.

Pastor Ben Bond

Senior Pastor

I grew up in Dallas in a loving Christian home, where I was blessed to meet my wife and best friend, Beth, who hails from New Orleans and proudly supports the LSU Tigers. Together, we've been blessed with two wonderful children, Jason and Jessica, who are both married and now live in the Atlanta area.

My educational journey has taken me through Dallas Baptist University, Southwestern Theological Seminary, Dallas Theological Seminary, and New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary. Throughout my ministry, I’ve had the honor of serving various churches across the South, from Dallas to Atlanta. My greatest passion is sharing the love of Jesus Christ, teaching the Word of God, and making a meaningful impact on people’s lives with His love.
