Jones named senior pastor at Meadow Brook Baptist

Meadow Brook Baptist Church named Chris Jones as its new senior pastor last month.

Jones served as the church’s youth pastor for the past two years.

Originally from Jonesboro, Ark., Jones and his wife, Ashley, moved to Birmingham in 2007 while he completed his Master of Divinity degree from Samford University’s Beeson Divinity School. They welcomed a daughter, Kinsley, in 2011.

 “I am delighted that God has blessed me with the opportunity to serve as the newest pastor of Meadow Brook Baptist Church,” Jones said. “With great joy, I anticipate the continued work and love of God in this church and in North Shelby County.”

Meadow Brook Baptist Church is a fellowship of the Southern Baptist Convention and part of the Shelby Baptist Association. The church, located at 4984 Meadow Brook Road, has been a part of the community for more than three decades.
