Session Speakers


Dr. Kyle Swanson

Kyle serves as Executive Pastor at Redeemer Bible Church in Gilbert, Arizona where he lives with his wife Jackie and their new daughter Lucy. Kyle was born and raised in Southern California and came to know the Lord through the faithfulness of his parents always having their family attend churches with solid Bible teaching. In his early teen years, Kyle gave His heart to Jesus and sought Him as Lord and Savior. After a brief stint in the restaurant business, Kyle followed the calling of the Lord on his life and attended The Master's Seminary. He moved to Louisville in 2015 to pursue a Doctorate from Southern Seminary, where he also served at Anchor Bible Church alongside Pastor Jack. Kyle is a regular contributor to the Redeeming Truth Podcast and his book "Isaiah's Great Light" will be released for Christmas 2023.
Kyle will be teaching on Thursday, for the men on Friday, and for our Sunday service.

Josie Padilla

Josie is a certified ACBC counselor and an assistant supervisor for ACBC Phase 3 counselors. She was married for 43 years to Mike Padilla, a former elder at Anchor Bible Church. He went to be with the Lord in 2016. This July would have been 50 years married. Josie has two adult married children and six grandchildren. They love the Lord and serve in their churches. She was recently a counselor of women at First Baptist Church of Jacksonville for 3 years. She currently works part time for a small Christian Home Security company here in Louisville, KY. In her free time she enjoys counseling, walking, and riding her bike.
Josie will be teaching the ladies for our Saturday session.
