Pastoral Team


Larry Burton

Lead Pastor

Prior to Pastor Larry and Marilyn Burton coming to pastor the congregation of Hot Springs First Assembly in November of 2012, they served as Senior Pastor of McArthur Church in Jacksonville, Arkansas where they saw the church grow from 17 in attendance to over 1,100.

The Burtons have two grown children, Kristen Brown, married to Dr. Ross Brown, and Justin Burton, married to Melonie Roden Burton.

Pastor Burton grew up in a pastor's home where he developed a love for both people and the Word of God and bases his leadership style on loving people, relevant teaching, prayer, relational evangelism, systematic lifestyle discipleship, and consistent grace.

Favorite verse : "By this shall all men know you are my disciples, if you have love one for another." John 13:35

Favorite Leadership Principle: Never let a problem become more important than a person, and never let a person become more important than a principle. Principles are based on God's Word and are the non-negotiables of life. Finally, you set policy to love and serve the people as you protect principles.
