Bethany Sports Ministries

I Timothy 4:8 "For physical training is of some value, but godliness has value for all things, holding promise for both the present life and the life to come."

Bethany's Sports Ministries Director - Quay Brashear

Quay, Cindy, Emma, Naomi, and Caleb come to us from our own congregation. Quay has been attending Bethany since 1986, and he is excited about serving God and his church family in this new Sports Ministry. He has been doing sports ministry on the volunteer basis since 1999, and during that time, he has created a church softball league, a church basketball league, a Bethany Golf League, and has run several church golf outings and wiffle®ball tournaments.


Quay received a Bachelor's Degree in Psychology from Kutztown University in 1996. He earned a Master's Degree in Educational Counseling from Eastern University in the year 2000. He played golf and tennis at Lehigh Carbon Community College, played volleyball his freshman year, and ran track his senior year at Emmaus High School. Quay also played in the Bethany Softball Program for 19 years, played in the Bethany Basketball Program for four years, and he is playing in Bethany's Golf League. He is also actively involved in the Men Of Bethany as well.

Quay is excited to be a part of the staff at Bethany Church. He is looking forward to serving God by creating a sports program where kids will be taught valuable Biblical Lessons while they are learning about what it means to be a Christian first and an athlete second. The people who participate in the Bethany Sports Program will learn to serve the One who gave them their athletic ability instead of serving themselves.

In his spare time, Quay enjoys spending time with his wife and children. He likes riding his bike with his daughters and likes to wrestle on the floor with his son. He also enjoys spending quiet time with his wife, Cindy. His other hobbies include playing golf and cheering on the Penn State Nittany Lions and Pittsburgh Steelers.
