We are a staff-led & elder-guided church.

Meet Our Lead Pastor

Landon Reynolds is the Lead Pastor of Local Church Knoxville. He and his wife, Leeanna, are Knoxville natives who sensed a call to full-time ministry early in life. From the moment of his salvation, Landon knew God was leading him to plant a church.

In January 2023, after years of preparation and prayer, Landon and Leeanna began the journey of launching a new multiplying church in Knox County. With the support of Fellowship Church, Fellowship West, and the Koinonia Network, Local Church was born.

Before planting, Landon served for nearly a decade at Foothills Church, a multi-site church in Maryville, Tennessee. He holds a Bachelor of Biblical & Theological Studies from Boyce College (2016) and a Master of Arts in Church Planting from Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary (2018).

In addition to leading Local Church, Landon travels and speaks to churches around the country. He is also a highly accomplished martial arts coach at The Wheeler Academy, his family’s Knoxville-based gym.

Landon and Leeanna have been married for 10+ years and have three wonderful children: Norah, Charleston, and Roman.
