Lead Pastor
Kyle Byrd
Kyle is the Founding/Lead Pastor of Church at The Epicenter. In pursuit of a career in professional baseball, Kyle came to a crossroads in his life in 1985 ... professional sports or ministry. Sending the Lord's clear direction to sell out to his calling to ministry, he stepped off of the playing field and into the harvest field. He was licensed into the ministry in 1980 and ordained by the Church in 1988. Prior to moving to Burnet, he and his family lived in Sugar Land, TX. Since 1989, Kyle has traveled the United States and the world preaching the Gospel to students and churches. Through Front Line Ministries, Inc., the ministry organization that he founded in November of 1989, it is estimated that Kyle has spoken to over 2.5 million people, in 43 of the 50 United States and 3 foreign countries.
Kyle and his wife, Robin, moved to Burnet in 2004. They have 2 daughters, Jennifer and Kyla, both of whom are now married and live in the Houston area. Brandon, their son, is a 2008 graduate of Burnet High School and attends Tarleton State University in Stephenville,TX. Kyle, Robin, and their family have committed their lives to establishing this ministry in the Texas Hill Country. By the power of the Spirit, and through the vision and passion the Lord has placed in Kyle's heart to reach and develop people, the future is bright for Church at The Epicenter!
