Our Leadership
Our Elders
The leadership of the church at Concord is based on the pattern we find in the New Testament. God's plan for local churches includes oversight provided by elders (1 Tim 3:1-7; Titus 1:5-9). In the Bible these men are referred to as “shepherds” or “pastors” (Eph 4:11), “bishops” or “overseers” (Acts 20:28), and “leaders” (Heb 13:7; 1 Thes 5:12).
Concord church of Christ is shepherded by 4 men:
Wes Brown
Greg Crawford
Matthew Folk
A.R. Mullinax
Our Deacons
The word deacon in the New Testament comes from a word that means “servant” or “support.” In Acts 6:1-6, men were selected by the church in Jerusalem to make sure that the needs of the group were met. Deacons are men who meet certain God-given qualities and are chosen to fill various roles of service (1 Tim 3:8-13). Our deacons are an important part of our work and growth as a church.
The church at Concord is served by 9 deacons:
Jeff Blankenship
Tripp Bradley
Mark Dingee
Dwain Dyer
Bruce Goldinger
David Groh
Junior Obsaint
David Satterfield
Patrick Wacks
Our Evangelist
An evangelist or preacher proclaims the good news of Jesus Christ (Eph 4:11; 2 Tim 4:1-5). They are ministers (Luke 1:2; I Corinthians 3:5; II Corinthians 3:6, 6:4) of the word. To do the work of an evangelist (2 Tim 4:5) is to declare the whole counsel of God (Acts 20:27), to proclaim the “good news” of the kingdom of heaven (Acts 28:30-31), and to speak the truth in love (Eph 4:15). Adam Jones is the evangelist for the church at Concord.
