Ministers
Dan Chambers
Pulpit Minister
Dan loves to preach the Word of God and, after more than 25 years in full-time ministry, he still can’t believe he gets paid to do so! Since the summer of 2009, he has considered himself to be “livin’ a dream” by serving the Concord Road church as their Preaching Minister.
In addition to his preaching and teaching ministry, Dan also likes to dabble in writing books on theology. He received his Doctor of Ministry (D.Min.) degree in Applied Theology from Southern Seminary, and he also has advanced degrees in Biblical Studies from Indiana University--Fort Wayne.
He met his wife, Leola, when they were both undergraduate students at Lipscomb University way back in the late 80s and they have two grown children and one precious granddaughter. On the personal side, Dan likes hiking, reading historical fiction, watching action movies, and plotting new travel adventures with Leola. Dan prefers cats over dogs and he is an avid Alabama football fan!

Melissa Tolbert
Office Administrator
Melissa has a long history with Concord Road, having been a member since 1973. In fact, her grandfather served as one of the first elders in the congregation. She and her husband, Tommy, were married at the church 43 years ago and raised two daughters here. Back in the 1980s, Melissa worked at the congregation's preschool—a role she served in for seven years. Since 2006, she has served as the office administrator. When she's not working in the office, you'll likely find her trying to keep up with Tommy or looking for opportunities to be a doting grandmother.
Bailie White
Childrens Coordinator
Bailie White brings her passion for nurturing young minds to our community as the Children's Coordinator at Concord Road Church of Christ. With a background in accounting and communications, Bailie discovered her true calling in fostering a love for learning and growth in our youngest members. Her journey began at Freed-Hardeman University, where she earned her BBA/MBA in Accounting while also cultivating a minor in communications. However, it was her innate ability to communicate, teach, and lead that drew her to the fulfilling role of guiding and supporting our children. She embraces every opportunity to inspire curiosity, creativity, and a sense of community among the children within our congregation.
With her warm and welcoming spirit, Bailie strives to create an environment where every child feels valued, encouraged, and eager to explore their faith. Her blend of skills, enthusiasm, and genuine care makes her an invaluable part of our church family, guiding our youngest members on their spiritual journey.
