Beacon of Light leadership


Malcolm Lewis

Malcolm Lewis is a Kingdom Marketplace Ambassador, dynamic leader, visionary, pastor, entrepreneur, accountant, and marketplace strategist whose life’s work is rooted in one mission: to help people grow spiritually, financially, and generationally. His overall assignment is to represent the Kingdom of God in both ministry and the marketplace by equipping individuals, families, business owners, and leaders with the wisdom, structure, faith, and financial understanding necessary to maximize their potential, build wealth for legacy, and flourish in their God-given purpose.


With a rare ability to lead both in the church and in the marketplace, Malcolm bridges spiritual conviction with practical strategy. He believes the marketplace is not separate from ministry, but one of the greatest arenas for kingdom influence, stewardship, ownership, and generational impact. Through his work, he helps people align their faith, finances, businesses, and families with principles that create stability, purpose, and lasting legacy.

Since 2002, Malcolm has served as the Senior Pastor of Beacon of Light Christian Ministries alongside his wife, Pastor Nedra Lewis. Under his leadership, Beacon of Light has become more than a church; it has become a place of transformation, restoration, and community impact. His pastoral heart is marked by compassion, truth, and a deep commitment to walking closely with people as they grow in faith. He has witnessed the salvation, healing, and spiritual development of many souls and has remained passionate about helping marriages, families, and individuals come into alignment with God’s purpose for their lives.

Through his leadership, Beacon of Light has developed a strong spiritual and community presence, becoming a place where people are equipped, restored, and strengthened for purpose. Malcolm’s desire is not only to preach the Word of God, but to help people live it with clarity, discipline, and conviction. He carries a shepherding heart and a kingdom mindset, always seeking to nurture people closely while challenging them to grow into maturity, responsibility, and spiritual authority.

Beyond the pulpit, Malcolm’s leadership extends powerfully into the marketplace. As the CEO of Bestway Tax & Accounting, he brings more than 30 years of business experience, helping individuals, families, and business owners gain clarity, confidence, and strategy in their financial lives. His work goes beyond taxes and accounting; he is deeply committed to leading people into financial understanding, wise stewardship, business structure, ownership, and wealth-building principles that can create lasting impact for generations.

Malcolm believes wealth is not merely about accumulation, but about assignment, stewardship, discipline, and legacy. He teaches individuals and families how to think beyond survival and begin building with intention. His leadership helps people move from financial confusion to financial clarity, from short-term decisions to long-term strategy, and from simply earning income to creating a foundation that can bless their families, communities, and future generations.

Through his professional leadership, Malcolm has positioned himself as a trusted advisor to entrepreneurs, professionals, families, and emerging leaders who desire more than temporary success. He helps people prepare their households, protect their assets, structure their businesses, and make decisions that support both financial stability and generational advancement. His financial guidance is rooted in the belief that when people are properly educated, equipped, and empowered, they can break cycles, build wealth, and leave an inheritance of wisdom, resources, faith, and purpose.

Malcolm is also a builder of vision. His influence reaches across business development, consulting, branding, ministry, mentorship, and community initiatives. Whether working with business owners, government leaders, families, or faith communities, his desire is to bring wisdom, order, and purpose into every environment he enters. He believes leadership is not simply about authority, but about service, responsibility, and the ability to help others become who God created them to be.

A strong proponent of education and lifelong growth, Malcolm holds a Bachelor of Business Administration in Accounting from Georgia State University, along with a Master of Divinity and a Master of Arts in Ministry from Luther Rice University. His academic foundation, combined with decades of real-world leadership experience, gives him a unique voice at the intersection of faith, finance, family, leadership, and legacy.

Perhaps Malcolm’s greatest testimony is the faithfulness of God in his own life. From humble beginnings to becoming a respected pastor, businessman, husband, father, grandfather, and community leader, his journey reflects perseverance, discipline, and unwavering trust in God. He has been married to Pastor Nedra Lewis since 1995, and together they have raised three adult children who also serve in ministry. Recently blessed with a granddaughter, Malcolm continues to believe that true leadership begins at home. His conviction is simple yet powerful: if a man cannot faithfully serve and lead his family, how can he effectively lead God’s house?

Malcolm Lewis is a man of faith, wisdom, strategy, and influence. His life stands as a testament to what happens when spiritual conviction meets marketplace excellence. Whether he is preaching the Word, advising a business owner, guiding a family toward financial stability, or leading individuals to build wealth for legacy, his assignment remains the same: to represent the Kingdom of God, build people, advance purpose, and leave a legacy that honors God.
