LEADERSHIP

Senior Pastor: Mike Burner

As the Senior Pastor of Calvary Lake Norman, I have had the privilege of walking with the Lord for more than 30 years. Throughout that journey, God has given me a deep love for His Word and a passion for helping others discover the truth, hope, and transforming power found in Scripture. I love studying, reading, and teaching the Bible in a way that invites people to see themselves in God’s story, grow in their faith, and draw closer to the Lord Jesus Christ.

Like everyone, my journey has included seasons of challenge. Most recently, life threw me a curveball, but by God’s grace, it has made me better—not bitter. Through it all, the Lord has strengthened my faith, deepened my dependence on Him, and renewed my resolve to see the Kingdom of God flourish through the ministry of Calvary Lake Norman. Genesis 50:20 has become especially meaningful to me: “You intended to harm me, but God intended it for good to accomplish what is now being done, the saving of many lives.” That promise reminds me daily that God is always at work, redeeming every circumstance for His glory and our good.

My heart is to faithfully shepherd God’s people, equip believers to grow in their walk with Christ, and lead Calvary Lake Norman with humility, conviction, and an unwavering desire to glorify God in everything I do.
