Leadership
Meet the leadership of Center Pointe Global Methodist Church
Mike Devine – Pastor
Pastor Mike Devine is truly blessed to be a part of Center Pointe. Mike’s originally from California, is recovering, plays guitar, and has an interestingly varied history! He is married to Kit since 1992. One of the clear themes of Mike’s ministry comes from #BeYou4Him. He believes each of us is created to be who we are, but to be who we are (using our gifts, graces, and talents) for God’s glory! God’s love is a powerful catalyst for change and he shares everywhere he goes.
Blane Spence – Pastor Emeritus
Blane received his call to ministry in the mid-1980s. However, he continued to work in the secular world and raise his family. He did, however, serve in various leadership positions in the churches he attended.
In the early 1990s, he began to minister as an evangelist, to the homeless on the streets of Atlanta, at the Atlanta Union Mission, at the Potter’s House addiction recovery center, and at various churches.
In November 2008, God opened the door for Blane to serve as pastor of Center. He did this while still working full time at Cisco (formerly Scientific Atlanta) as a Cable TV technical support engineer. After 34 years of employment, he was able to take early retirement in July 2011.
Blane has two degrees in biblical studies and theology: an Associate of Arts from Liberty University and a Bachelor of Science from North Central University. In 2019, he completed the Methodist Church’s Course of Study program.
Blane has been married to Angela since October 1975. They have a son and daughter and three grandsons. In his spare time, Blane enjoys spending time with his family, as well as boating and fishing. He also served in the US Navy.
