Zach Kennedy
Lead Pastor
Zach grew up in the triad area of NC, and loves NC as much or more than most Texans love TX, and he believes that one could make an almost objective case that NC is the greatest state.
He has been married to the love of his life, Kelly, since 2010 and together they have three sons, Braxton, Owen, and Weston.
He is a graduate of Emmanuel College in GA, and of Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary in Wake Forest, NC. Currently, he is pursuing a doctorate at the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, KY.
He is an avid reader and sports fan, especially of the Carolina Panthers and Hurricanes, Notre Dame Fighting Irish Football, and Wake Forest basketball. He also tries to stay in shape by doing CrossFit, even if he doesn’t always enjoy it.
He has been blessed to serve at Alexis since July of 2019, having served previously at churches in Fayetteville, NC and in northwest Louisiana.
