Ricky Arnold
Minister Profile
From the Biographical History of Primitive or Old School Baptist Ministers, Vol. II, by David Montgomery and Mark Green, 2001:
Elder Arnold was born on July 14, 1958. He was married to the former Deborah Sue Mabe.
Elder Ricky Arnold writes: “I joined the Mt. View Church when I was 14. I was baptized by Elder Avery Land and learned much while I was with these good people. But as I became an adult, I felt that New Bildad was where I belonged. It was a very old church with a small congregation that met on the Third Sunday and the Saturday night before. They had a wonderful and faithful servant in Elder Young, who would be my father in the ministry. I was blessed to labor with Bro. Young and learn from him. God has blessed me in so many ways. We have grown in number and, hopefully, in grace; for this, I give thanks and glory to our Lord and Master, Jesus Christ. I was ordained to the ministry in May 1984 and have served New Bildad until the time of this writing.”
Elder Ricky Arnold now serves Mt. View Primitive Baptist Church in Smithville, TN.
