BOBBY CHANDLER
Lead Pastor of Authentic Church
As we grow our physical location, my hope is to connect with other churches in order to bring unity among us all. I share all of my sermons with our online following in hopes to bring awareness of what other churches are doing to bring people closer to the Lord.
We believe that the only way to the Father, is through His son, Jesus Christ. That through His death we have recieved the gift of the Holy Spirit to guide us through this world and bring glory back to Him.

MY STORY
My wife and I have been in ministry our whole marriage. I recieved my bachelors in theology in 2011 at Dallas Christian College and have been a pastor for 10 years. Ministry has taken us many places. The most recent of those places, North Carolina. As God called us to move once again, on faith, this time with 3 kids, our youngest having recently had a tracheostomy. The doubts were overwhelmingly there. Through obedience, the Lord has opened more doors than we ever thought imaginable.
​
We started an outreach ministry back home in Louisiana in 2013 called Authentic Ministries. Although it was successful, we eventually merged it into a local church. I decided to shift my focus into the pastoral role in the church as well as family as we had just had a baby and we were preparing to adopt.
​
Several years later in 2018, once we settled into our home in North Carolina, it was clear that God was about to revive what we He had already started. That's when our focus shifted back to Authentic Church. We have been dedicated to growing our online following and we are about to begin the process of planting a physical location.
