Dr. Brad Newbold
Worship Pastor
Dr. Brad Newbold is a seasoned worship pastor, author, and educator with a deep commitment to Christ-centered worship and multigenerational ministry. He serves as Worship Pastor at Concord Baptist Church in Jefferson City, Missouri, where he leads with theological depth, musical excellence, and pastoral care. In 2025, he published The Worship Target, a resource designed to help worship leaders cultivate holy affections rather than chase performance-driven trends.
With decades of ministry experience—including time as Director of Worship Studies at Hannibal-LaGrange University—Dr. Newbold has shaped worship leaders both locally and globally. His passion for missions has led him to serve in over a dozen countries, most recently in Albania and Kosovo, where he taught and encouraged young worship leaders.
He is deeply family-oriented, cherishing time at his log cabin on the Lake of the Ozarks with his wife Janis, their children and spouses, and their beloved grandchildren: Cora, Declan, and Josie. Whether boating, planning music for major church events, or organizing statewide worship conferences, he leads with intentionality, creativity, and joy.
Dr. Newbold is a unique blend of reverent theologian and joyful storyteller. He is known for crafting excellent teaching resources, leading worship with authenticity, and inspiring churches to engage in biblically faithful, Spirit-led praise across generations.
