Reverend Karl R. Marshall, Sr. is a born again believer who loves Jesus Christ and believes in serving Him whole-heartedley. He is the husband of Gwendolyn Marshall, the father to Kiera, KJ, and Kieaundra Marshall. He answered the call to preach the Gospel in March of 2002 and was licensed by Reverend George L. Smith, at Pleasant Grove Baptist Church in the Holland Section of Suffolk, Virginia, where he served faithfully as the Pastor for 5 years. He was recently called to serve as Pastor of Liberty Baptist Church in Waverly, Virginia where he succeeds Reverend Dr. C.R. Alston. He is employed as the Sign and Paint Manager with the City of Suffolk in the Traffic Engineering Dept. he believes what the bible says in Matthew 19:26 - "With God all things are possible". He is a graduate of The Virginia University of Lynchburg, M.C. Allen School of Religion.He has a burning passion for the youth because just as Jesus told Peter in Luke 22:31 "Satan hath desired to sift you as wheat". Rev. Marshall believes he is still trying to do this with our youth today. There is also a special place in his heart for the more mature congregation, those whom God has blessed to pave the way for the younger generations, the same people who have been imparting wisdom and experience upon all of us for many years. He does his very best everyday to be like our saviour Jesus, who had the love of all people within Him. God has blessed him to be a lover of all people, and most importantly a lover of Christ and His Gospel. He believes with the possession of a God-given vision, the possibilities for His people are endless.
Finally, Reverend Marshall always says "I have been called by God to do what Paul admonished Timothy to do in 2Nd Timothy 4:2 which says "Preach the word; be instant in season, out of season: reprove, rebuke, exhort with all long suffering and doctrine".
