TAD MARSHALL SERVES AS PASTOR AT LAKESIDE.

He grew up in a godly Christian home, and his family had the wonderful opportunity to travel with his father, evangelist Charlie Marshall. When he was 14, he surrendered to the ministry while attending a week of camp at the Bill Rice Ranch.

In 1985, Tad graduated from Bible college at Tennessee Temple in Chattanooga, TN. While there, he served on the staff with Dr. Lee Roberson at Highland Park Baptist Church. One of the great joys of his life was working with teenagers as a youth pastor. He served for fourteen years at Breezy Hill Baptist Church in Graniteville, SC, and four years at Trinity Baptist in Asheville, NC. Then God called him to pastor Community Baptist Church in Siler City, NC. In May 2008, Tad was honored to come to Lakeside Baptist Church. In April 2012, after almost four years at Lakeside, his first wife, Pat, went to heaven. For a period of time, he was a “single pastor and dad.” Then, God allowed him to meet his wife, Amy. They married in November 2014 and enjoy serving together with their son, Tyler.

Along with spending time with my family and serving the Lord, Tad enjoys playing golf and watching the Tar Heels! He is grateful for our church family and feels blessed to minister at Lakeside!
