Dr. Eddie Bumpers is a native of Alabama and a graduate of Luther Rice Seminary. He pastored churches in Mississippi and North Carolina before becoming the Senior Pastor of Crossway Baptist Church in December 2000.
He and his wife, Tess were married in 1982. They have 2 sons, Jared and Jordan and a daughter, Bethany. The Lord has blessed them with wonderful spouses and the family always enjoys their time together.
Dr. Bumpers feels blessed to have followed the former pastor, Norman Noble who laid a great foundation. Crossway is made up of people who love the Word of God and have a passion to win the lost to Christ. He is a strong believer that the preaching of the Word of God changes lives and a Gospel focused church is the most important thing in our world.
He enjoys hunting, Alabama football, and giving his grandchildren rides in the golf cart. He also spends a good bit of time at the popcorn machine.
