Van Vandegriff

Senior Pastor

Van Vandegriff moved to Georgia from Waco, Texas, to pastor Cedarcrest Church in December of 2017. He graduated from Baylor University (BBA) and George W. Truett Theological Seminary (M.Div.), whereafter he and his wife, Kelly, became church planters in Berlin, Germany, for 8 years.

Pastor Van is passionate about Jesus, the local church, and global missions. When he isn’t spearheading a new venture to see the local church built, he enjoys hunting, traveling, and spending time with his three teenagers and wife, Kelly.

Our Beliefs

what we believe serves as the foundation of our faith.

Although our approach is modern, what we believe is tried and true. Our methods may change, but these are the foundational beliefs we'll always hold on to as a church.
