Dr. Mark Walker came to Mount Paran North in August of 1992 and serves as Senior Pastor. Mark is also a sought-after speaker for church conferences and serves as an adjunct professor at Southeastern University.
The most important thing I have observed in Mark is that his confidence in who he is in Christ enables him to look for the most talented people to come along side him in ministry. I have met a lot of talented leaders who say they would love to have good people to help them with their ministry or organization. The problem is they are so insecure in themselves, which prohibits them from hiring anyone they feel that may be better than them. Not so with Pastor Mark—he truly wants people that are extremely good in the areas that he is not. That has enabled him to surround himself with talented people who are loyal to him and Mount Paran North and exponentially increases his capacity to lead well and pursue the God-given vision he has for North.
Mark is one of the most gifted leaders I have been associated with and he reminds me that my security is in Christ. When I remember this, I open my life up to really talented people that God will send to help fulfill the vision.
