Meet Our Pastors

Pastor

Rev. Adam Fronczek has been the Pastor of Knox Presbyterian Church for eight years. He is passionate about understanding the changing role of religion in our culture; he is also convinced that there is still a place for an active neighborhood church, where generations gather together to figure out life, where people greet you by name and know your story, and where we consider together how we can leave the world a little better than we found it.

Adam is the child of two public school music teachers; he found his way to Knox through its commitment to great music, and is deeply committed to growing the transformative justice work we share with urban congregations in Cincinnati. When Adam isn’t working, he adds to his theological insights by reading things he doesn’t agree with, watching Ted Lasso, listening to Bach and Radiohead, riding his bike, and slowing down as much as possible while he does yard work with his children. Adam is married to Anna, and is father to Charlie, Mack, Teddy, and Sam. He is a recent co-moderator of the NEXT Church Strategy Team and a recent Moderator of the Presbytery of Cincinnati. Adam is a graduate of Wabash College and Vanderbilt Divinity School.

Associate Pastor

David Annett was installed as Knox’s associate pastor in September, 2024. David’s ministry at Knox focuses around Youth Ministries and Fresh Spirit Worship. In youth ministry, he is privileged to work with youth from eighth grade through college. With Fresh Spirit Worship, he oversees our contemporary worship service and serves as a staff contact for the various teams who make the service each week. David has been at Knox for over twenty years, and he feels just as blessed to be here as the day he started.

David is ordained in the Presbyterian Church (USA), and earned a Masters of Divinity from Louisville Presbyterian Theological Seminary. In addition to his work at Knox, David serves as the Pastor at Cranston Presbyterian Church in New Richmond, OH.

He resides in Hyde Park with wife Kristen and their three kids, Jacob, Lily and Annie. When not doing church work, you will likely find him making music, taking pictures, or going to Bengals and Reds games with his kids.

Director of Faith Formation

Rev. Tina Hubert, as Director of Faith Formation, oversees mission, Adult Faith Formation, Children’s & Family Ministry, Epic567 (5th-7th graders), and fellowship and events programming at Knox. She is passionate about connecting people to God and to one another and she loves helping people find ways to plug in at Knox.

Tina joined the staff of Knox in 2017. She has a Masters of Divinity from Duke Divinity School in Durham, North Carolina, and was ordained in the American Baptist Church in October 2008. Tina  and her husband Josh served on staff for six years at Wildwood United Methodist Church in Houston, Texas.  Prior to Knox, she directed the Ozanam Center for Service Learning at the Society of St. Vincent de Paul in the West End neighborhood of Cincinnati.

Tina and her husband live in Oakley with their two young daughters, Hannah and Caroline. Tina’s favorite things to do are anything outdoors (especially skiing and hiking), baking, rollercoasters, and planning the next social get-together.
