Meet Your Staff


Dr. Don Solomon – Transitional Pastor

Don began preaching at King’s Grant back in May 2022 and had been invited to continue as one of our regular preachers during our time without a lead pastor. In December 2022, the church invited Don to be our intentional transitional pastor to lead the congregation in preparing us for the next pastor that will lead us and serve with us at King’s Grant.

Don has a Ph.D. in Counseling from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary. He is a professional counselor with over 50 years of experience, having a connection to King’s Grant that goes back to the 1970s. Don also was the director of Partners/Resort Family Ministries at the Virginia Beach Oceanfront. He has influenced countless lives toward the gospel and helped many people experience relational, spiritual, and emotional wholeness through his vocational counseling ministry. We are blessed to have Don with us during this interim time.

Beth Anderson – Director of Student Ministries – Beth joined our staff in 2007 as Student Ministry Director. She graduated from Averett University in Danville, VA with a religion degree after sensing God’s call to ministry as a teenager.

She has a heart for students and young adults, and longs to see them grow in their relationship with the Lord and then use their gifts to share His love with others.
