Mark Walker, Assoc. Pastor of Music & Worship Mark was raised in a pastor's home in the panhandle of Florida where life was about two things; sports and church. Mark went to Trinity Baptist College where he lettered in Baseball, Basketball, and Soccer. At the time, Mark had no desire for vocational ministry and pursued studies in Business Administration. Mark met his wife, Kelly, upon moving to Winston-Salem in 1991. After five years working in Business Management, Mark began to sense that God was leading him into Christian service. In the summer of 1996, he surrendered his life to this call and enrolled full-time into Piedmont Baptist College where he obtained an B.A. in Biblical Studies with a minor in music and voice.
Mark and Kelly have three children: Ryan (1994), Rachel (1998), and Anna Claire (2006). Mark has an appreciation for a variety of music and worship styles. His desire is to lead our congregation in bringing an offering of praise to our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ. He has a love for special productions in writing and directing these special events. Mark enjoys watching college sports and traveling with his family.
