About Dr. Mark Turman

Dr. Mark Turman is the Executive Director of Denison Forum and Senior Contributor for Leadership.

Mark is from Tyler, Texas. Raised as a child in the Catholic Church, Mark made a personal commitment to faith in Christ at seventeen through the witness of the Bible and two friends.

He soon joined Green Acres Baptist Church, where he was discipled and responded to a call to ministry.

Mark’s vision is to partner with Dr. Jim Denison and the ministry team to deepen a transformational connection with believers, and especially to pastors and church leaders.
