Aaron and Lauren serve as the Senior Pastors of Opendoor Church. Aaron's parents, Greg and Deana Kennedy, founded Opendoor in 1986; and in 2015, they transitioned the leadership of the church to Aaron and his wife, Lauren.
Building on the legacy that came before, Pastors Aaron and Lauren lead our Church Staff, providing guidance and direction for our church as a whole. With a passion to see people know God and walk in freedom, they continue to lead Opendoor to be a church known for genuine teaching, authentic faith, and passionate worship.
Aaron and Lauren have two children and live in the Greenville/Winterville area, where Opendoor Church began.
