Our Staff

Pastor & Elder

Dr. Casey Butner

My name is Casey Butner, and I hope to meet you face to face someday. God has called me to serve Him at Beulah Baptist Church, and we are excited to be part of His work in western Orlando. My lovely bride, Christina, is the best, and we have four children. Their names all start with “A,” so we affectionately call them our “A-team.”

After ten years of owning a business, God called me to preach, and I sold it all to answer that call. From there, He guided me to earn an associate degree in preaching from Fruitland Baptist Bible College, a bachelor's in ministry from The Baptist College of Florida, a master's in theology from New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary, and a doctorate with a concentration in pastoral leadership.

Worship Leader

Jimmy Freeman

Since receiving Jesus Christ as Savior at the age of 16, Jimmy was mentored by some truly gifted and passionate believers. His first solo as a new believer was the Gaither song, “He Touched Me,” delivered during a Wednesday night Bible Study. Since that day, his life was never the same. Through years of experiencing both trials and blessings, he shared his faith in the One who saved him, kept him, and promised to finish the work He began. He chose to use the gifts God gave him to help lead believers into a closer walk with Christ. His personal goal is to lift up Jesus in every situation.

His passion is to see Jesus touch the lives of every believer through worship — then His people will be able to touch and reach those who do not know the Savior, Jesus Christ. Jimmy believes that true worship begins in the heart of every child of God and is expressed in various ways through private and corporate acts. Worship can be singing, serving, giving, reading God's word, or sharing faith with others. God placed a song in Jimmy's heart that remains with him and drives him to say, “It Is Well with My Soul.” Let's join our hearts in worship and sing that song together, to the glory of God.
