Dr. Alan Lee Herd, Sr.

Alan received Jesus Christ as his Lord and Savior when he was 16 years old and was baptized at First Baptist Church in Mt. Juliet. He was ordained into the Gospel Ministry in 1991 and has served as our Senior Pastor since 2000.

Before being called to Grace Baptist Church, he served the Lord as Associate Pastor of Students & Education at Sevier Heights Baptist Church in Knoxville, TN (1996-2000); as Associate Pastor of Students at Immanuel Baptist Church in Lebanon, TN, (1994-1996) and was Area Director of the Middle Tennessee Fellowship of Christian Athletes (1987-1994).

Alan is thankful and excited about being back home where he is serving the Lord and the community where he was raised. He and his wife Lisa were married in 1984 and have four children: Alan & Rose, John & Anna, Anna Grace & Jordan, and Jacob & Kate. They also have seven grandchildren: Paisley, Clayton, Cassidy, Trace, Wesley, Jackson and Truett.
