Joshua Campbell

Campus Associate

Hey guys, we’re the Campbells. Josh and Meliah are the grown ups in the picture. The kids are Magnolia (Right, ‘23), Charlotte (Left, ‘23), and Bella (Meliah’s Belly, ‘25). Josh and Meliah both went to West Virginia University where they met and were married in April 2019. After graduating in 2020, they interned with RUF at Middle Tennessee State University before moving back to their home state of West Virginia to pursue seminary through Covenant Seminary’s hybrid MDiv program. While there, they worked with the local Young Life and RUF in Buckhannon, WV.

Josh is honored to be the Campus Minister at Carson-Newman and step into the work God has been doing through the years. We are excited to get to know students and share the Good News about Jesus over coffee with too much creamer, Large Group, sporadic trips, small groups, buffalo wings, or helping us chase around crazy kids in our house.
