Pastor Mike McDaniel is the Lead Pastor of Grace Point Church in Northwest Arkansas.
After 4 years of planting churches in Zambia, Africa, Mike moved to Northwest Arkansas, where he would plant Grace Point Church, and realized he needed some retooling if he were going to successfully plant a church in the western world. He received his Doctor of Ministry degree at Dallas Theological Seminary and was inspired to specifically focus on culture, communication, and leadership in the church.
