After graduating from Hyles-Anderson College in 1979, Ron Talley worked as Assistant Pastor at Lakewood Baptist Church in Tallahassee, Florida. While there, he lead the Youth Department, the Bus Ministry, and the Sunday School Department and saw tremendous growth. In August of 1986, he was called to be the Pastor of Hyles Baptist Church with only 9 people in the first service. God has truly had His hand on our preacher as the church has seen many souls saved and has had much growth. Pastor Talley is a man who genuinely loves people and preaches the Word of God with boldness and without compromise.
