Is a former native of Salisbury NC that currently resides in the Queen City of Charlotte NC. Pastor Mark comes from a musical multi-talented family where he established his roots in the musical industry. For over 20 years, he passionately displayed his gifts in ministry through teaching the worship behind music according to scripture and how the Word defines and cultivate the heart of a true minstrel and worshiper.

However, Pastor Mark’s goal is not only to invoke change to the mindset of individuals but to strive after the “Mind of God”. When we begin to understand the Mind of God, we become enlightened to a purpose which causes us to know why we’re here. Therefore the fulfillment of who we were created to become is realized as God is glorified! It is in this revelation that God led Pastor Mark to start The Garden Center. The total understanding of who we are and what God intended for our lives is mapped out in the “Book of Beginnings” Genesis. In order to understand the end, you must understand where it all began…in “The Garden.
