After a successful 13 year career in the group and health insurance business as a Marketing Executive, God ordered Pastor Freeman's steps to engage full-time in some aspect of ministry.

Pastor Freeman has a love of teaching God's word and for helping families: gifts effectively utilized while functioning as the Pastor of Teaching at the Macedonia Baptist Church in Pittsburgh and the Bethesda Baptist Church in Washington, DC. He firmly believes that a strong family is a family committed to growing in the love and knowledge of God.
