SENIOR PASTOR (INTERIM) - PASTOR EDDIE PULLEN: [EMAIL: lcc_nashville@sbcglobal.net]
Pastor Eddie Pullen has graciously accepted the position of interim Pastor for Lighthouse Community Church. Pastor Eddie serves on the Illinios Baptist State Association’s Church Planting Team as the Director of Next Gen Mnistries.

A native of Tennessee, Pastor Eddie has been a full-time pastor for almost 15 years. "I believe the church is the hope of the world and that the future health of Christianity in North America rests solely in starting new churches," he said. "Our culture is changing so rapidly, we must contextualize the Gospel so that others can come to know Christ in their own language."

Pullen and his wife Pam have two sons – Jacob (10) and Isaac (9).
