Harvest Baptist Church was founded in 1983. We are a welcoming family that embraces people from all walks of life. Our mission is to make mature followers of Jesus, investing in both spiritual growth and authentic relationships. Together, we live out our faith as a community, committed to loving God, each other, and the world.

In October 2016, Marc Likins was called to serve as the lead pastor of Harvest Baptist Church after previously serving as an associate pastor in Chico, California. He and his wife, Maggie, are grateful for the opportunity to minister together alongside their four children—Brennan, Willow, Cruz, and Deacon. As a family, they love helping others grow in grace, spending quality time together, and exploring the city of Pittsburgh.

Originally from Louisville, Kentucky, Marc holds a Master’s in Theology from West Coast Baptist College and a Master of Divinity from Luther Rice Seminary. A down-to-earth Bible teacher and preacher, he is passionate about engaging with skeptics and guiding others toward a deeper, more mature faith in Christ.
