My name is Taylor Whitson, and I share in the work of leading worship at CityChurch. I studied worship ministry and preaching/church leadership at Johnson University, where I met my wonderful wife, Amanda, and am pursuing a M.A. in theological studies at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary. I believe worship is the heart of all the church does. It steeps us in the story of the gospel, trains our hearts to love our God and neighbor, and compels us to live into the reality of his kingdom come. It’s my passion and privilege to aid the people of God to engage in such a work as faithfully and beautifully as we can to the praise of his glory.
My name is Lauren Barker and I am the Director of Children’s Ministries here at City Church Bristol. I have a Bachelor’s of Arts in Youth Ministry from King University and a Master’s of Education from ETSU in Special Education. I have been a volunteer Young Life Leader for 5 years and a Special Education teacher. I have a heart for serving the community of Bristol and connecting others in acts of service in our community. Children are the future to our mission. I am passionate about loving and teaching children about the unconditional love of Jesus while walking through life with them.
We are Lisle and Mallory Whitman, and we serve as the Small Group Coordinators at CityChurch. Lisle is currently studying at The University of Tennessee College of Law, and Mallory teaches elementary art at Cornerstone Christian Academy in Abindgon. Whether it was YoungLife (Mallory), Fight Club (Lisle-you can ask, but remember the first rule of Fight Club), our small group at CityChurch, or so many experiences in between, we can attest to the transformative power of the gospel when experienced in the fellowship of genuine Christian community. We believe that Christian community offers the antidote to the dangerous trend of commoditizing religion for convenient and comfortable consumption. We aim to steward small groups under the mission of CityChurch to see the freeing power of the gospel create communities of honesty and trust where living life together deepens personal faith.
