PJ Selvy

COMMUNITY PASTOR
PJ grew up in Farmington AR attending school there and being raised in what was then called FBC of Farmington. He attended Farmington First (FBC Farmington) for most of his life, until he started to attend Phillips Chapel in December of 2023. He comes from the corporate world, as he was previously a Manager at JB Hunt. Before that PJ was running a family business that managed Convenience Stores and a Distribution business.

Being raised in a Christian home, PJ felt a calling to serve in ministry at a young age. However, it was not until the fall of 2023 that the Lord providentially moved in his life to open doors for him to begin that journey.  Now serving as Community Pastor at Phillips Chapel, PJ is responsible for family discipleship, community outreach and assisting Pastor Ben in congregational care.

PJ, is a Husband and Father. He married his High School sweetheart, Cydnie, in February of 2016. They have two young boys, Elliott and Drew. He enjoys family fellowship, reading or listening to books and the greatest sport of all time, basketball.
