Central Christian Church

Minister Derry Gibson and Family

Derry grew up on a farm in West Central Missouri, namely Higginsville, MO (population 4,318) and has a bachelor’s degree in Theology from Ozark Christian College (Joplin, MO) and a Master's Degree in Pastoral Care and Counseling from Lincoln Christian Seminary (Lincoln, IL). Then a country boy married Kelly Wilkinson, a city girl from St. Louis June 12, 1987.

Derry loves to travel, loves education (both teaching and taking college level classes), and his greatest pleasure of all is spending time with his wife and kids, especially traveling together or rocking out at Christian music concerts.
