Jacob Kelch serves as the planting pastor of Cornerstone Church on the Eastside of Cincinnati. After 15 years of pastoral ministry, God called Jacob, his wife Brittany, and their four children back home to plant a church centered on Jesus Christ and His Word.

Jacob is passionate about preaching the Bible clearly, making disciples, and helping people move from shallow religion to real faith in Christ. He holds a bachelor's degree in Christian Ministries, a Master of Divinity from Liberty University, and is currently pursuing a doctorate in discipleship.

At this stage, Cornerstone is led by Jacob with support and oversight from our sending church. As the church grows, we are praying for the Lord to raise up future elders, deacons, and servant-hearted leaders.

“Unless the Lord builds the house, those who build it labor in vain.” — Psalm 127:1
