Senior pastor

Mark Beeson is the senior pastor at Granger Community Church. In 1986, he and his wife, Sheila, started the church in their living room, with fewer than ten people. Their dream was to reach out to people who were not currently attending church, instead of pulling from other churches. Beeson is known for focusing on the areas in which he excels, and he gives the rest of his leadership team the freedom and encouragement to do what they do best, without micromanaging them.

Beeson has delivered the keynote address at Rick Warren’s Purpose Driven Church Conference. He earned his Bachelor of Science degree from Ball State University, his Master of Divinity degree from Christian Theological Seminary in Indianapolis, and his Doctor of Ministry degree in leadership development from United Theological Seminary in Trotwood, Ohio.

Executive Pastors

Mark Waltz and Butch Whitmire are the executive pastors at Granger Community Church.
