Mark

Lead Vocals

Mark has been involved in youth ministry for more than 18 years, serving the past 8 as a youth pastor to roughly 400 teenagers at Eagles Landing First Baptist Church in McDonough, GA. “Our songs have always come from our ministry in the church,” Mark says. “They start as messages on Wednesday night, things we’re teaching our teenagers and their families. Our typical Wednesday night crowd is about 70% students and 30% parents. So we’re a family ministry and that comes out in the crowds who come to our concerts. You’ll see a six-year-old and a 60-year-old at a Crowns concert.”

Mark and his wife Melanie, who is the band’s road manager, have 3 children and are currently in the process of trying to adopt another.
