Clay Scroggins

Lead Pastor — North Point Community Church

Clay Scroggins is lead pastor of North Point Community Church (NPCC), where he provides visionary and directional leadership for the local church staff and congregation in Alpharetta, Georgia. As the original and largest campus of North Point Ministries, ranked by Outreach Magazine in 2014 as the largest church in America, NPCC averages over 12,000 people in attendance. Clay works for Andy Stanley (“one of the greatest leaders on the planet” according to Clay) and understands firsthand how to manage the tension of leading when you’re not in charge. Starting out as a facilities intern (a.k.a. “vice president of nothing”), Clay worked his way through many organizational levels at North Point Ministries and knows all too well the challenge of authority deprivation. Clay holds a degree in industrial engineering from Georgia Tech. During his years at Georgia Tech, he volunteered with the high school ministry at NPCC and discovered a passion to help students find a faith of their own. Also during that season, Clay attended a Bible study led by Louie Giglio, and a relationship developed that allowed Clay to be involved with Passion Conferences. At Dallas Theological Seminary, Clay earned a master’s degree as well as a doctorate with an emphasis in online church. Zondervan will publish Clay Scroggins’ first book this August, entitled How to Lead When You’re Not in Charge: Leveraging Influence When You Lack Authority. An online event by the same name is scheduled for May 17, 2017, and is available to register at www.howtoleadevent.com. Clay and his wife, Jenny, live in Forsyth County, Georgia, with their four children. Clay is an avid podcast listener and some of his favorite leadership books are Leadership and Self-Deception (Arbinger Institute), Primal Leadership by Daniel Goleman, and anything by Patrick Lencioni.
