Jon Partlow

Email: Dr. Jon Partlow

West Side wants to welcome Jon Partlow to our congregation as our pulpit minister.  A native of Portland, Oregon, Brother Jon has a bachelor’s degree from Harding University, a master’s degree in divinity from Harding Graduate School of Religion in Memphis, and a second master’s of education degree from East Tennessee State University.  A 2007 alumnus of Harding Graduate School of Memphis with a doctor of ministry degree, Brother Jon has served in most recent years as pulpit minister in Madisonville, KY, at the Pennyrile Church of Christ.  Prior to Madisonville, Brother Jon worked with two separate congregations in Greeneville, TN.  Brother Jon’s wife, Cile (short for Lucile), a native of Carthage, TN, has a bachelor’s degree in elementary education along with a master’s degree in special education. He and his wife are the parents of Taylor (May 1993), Jonathan (August 1996), and Matthew (February 1999).

Brother Jon states that many of his and Cile’s interests revolve around the activities their children enjoy – track and cross country, baseball, karate, Boy Scouts, and horses. Taylor, a junior, is an avid reader, is a lover of horses, and has lettered in track. Jonathan, an 8^th grader, also has been involved in track and cross country and the Boy Scouts, loves baseball, and enjoys reading as well.  Matthew, a 6^th grader, enjoys reading and karate, loves baseball and the New York Yankees, and is also involved in the Boy Scouts.  Brother Jon’s personal interests include, when possible, golf, reading selective novels, storytelling, creative writing, and listening to music.

In describing his background, Brother Jon credits his godly parents for instilling in him, his three brothers, and sister solid Christian values and principles.  A published author of several articles, Brother Jon states, “People not only want to hear the Gospel, but also want an emotional connection with it; effective preaching engages the heart and mind.”

West Side would like to take this opportunity to welcome Brother Jon, Cile, Taylor, Jonathan, and Matthew to our congregation. We hope that the years that follow will bring strong unity to West Side and a stronger dedication to serving God in our daily lives.
