Dr. Meredith came to the Lord via his membership in the Nation of Islam. While a member of the Nation he held the post of FOI(Fruit of Islam). His transition to Christianity was rooted in a foundation embedded by his grandmother early in his childhood.  While spending summers and holidays with her the Good News was spread through his grandmother’s words, prayers and lifestyle.  As a child he was introduced to the Holiness of the Communion, an example of the many lessons that remain with him today. The transition to Christianity was fully manifested throughout series of life changing events. Kendrick Meredith found himself in the face of God accepting the Altar Call.   

A few years later, Dr. Meredith’s pastoral career began when he received his minister’s license in 2001 and was ordained in 2003.  He initially served as Youth Leader for Beacon of Light Ministries located in Doraville, GA.  He attended Berean Christian Church where he was mentored by his spiritual father Dr. Kerwin Lee.  He served as armor bearer and eventually held the post of Chief Armor Bearer.  In this role is where Dr. Meredith developed what he refers to as his “Servant’s Spirit.”  Dr. Meredith strongly believes that any good leader must be an even greater servant.  He spent a total of eight years under the guidance and tutelage of Dr. Lee.  In 2003, Dr. Meredith answered the call to begin the ministry that God gave him which  eventually was birthed into Life Abundantly Christian Church.  Life Abundantly’s biblical foundation can be found in John 10:10 “…I have come that they may have life,
