Kevin w. Kahler was born, raised and still currently lives in Turnersville , NJ . He graduated from Washington Township HS in 1994 and went on to graduate from The Richard Stockton College of NJ with a Bachelor’s degree in Business Management. It was in his freshman year of high school that Kevin came across the ministry of Young Life. He quickly became involved, loved it and decided to go on their summer camp trip that year. Long story short, it was July 31st of 1991 when he first surrendered his live to Jesus Christ.

For the next five years Kevin invested nearly every minute with his Young Life family, growing and learning about this new life in Christ. It wasn’t until he was around 20 that he first began to feel the call to music ministry. He quickly fell in love with the guitar and discovered a passion for singing that he never knew existed. Kevin claims that God did a “complete 180” in his life when it came to music. At around 23 he began leading a small bible study in Blackwood , NJ and continued there for around 6 years. Kevin says that in many ways he and the ministry matured together as the years went on. It was in his 6 th year with Elevate that he met Pastor Bob. Pastor Bob surprised Kevin with an amazing opportunity to lead worship for the church’s trip to Greece ….Kevin couldn’t say no.

Kevin’s desire was always to find a home where he could minister full time and after spending a week in Greece with Bob and the Calvary Family he knew that this was from God. Soon after the trip Pastor Bob offered Kevin the opportunity to lead worship for the Wednesday night services during the summer of ‘05. And that pretty much brings us to the latest chapter in his life. Kevin currently continues his passion for music here with the worship team and is also working with Pastor Steve Smickley to build a thriving Community of Young Adults here at Calvary . In his own words he says “I’m so proud, blessed and honored to be a part of such a Spirit filled, loving and motivated family of believers like Calvary Chapel of Delaware County.”
