A native Marylander, Douglas is the fourth child of Rev. Douglas M. and Andrea R. Logan.   Douglas began playing the piano at 5 years of age.  Douglas was educated in the Prince Georges’ County Public Schools, where he graduated with honors from Northwestern High School, Hyattsville, MD.  He was awarded Bachelor and Master of Science Degrees in Music Education (1998) and Choral Conducting (2003) from Morgan State University (MSU) where he was on the Dean’s List all of his college years.  Douglas was a member of the world famous and well-traveled Morgan State Choir under the direction of the late Dr. Nathan M. Carter. He was privileged to study with Dr. Carter while working on his master’s degree.

 

Dr. Logan currently teaches choral music at Woodlawn High School. He joined the faculty of Woodlawn High School in August 2008. Preceding the position at Woodlawn, Dr. Logan taught music at Calverton Middle, Heritage High, Northern High (W. E. Dubois) Schools in Baltimore City.  This is his 26th year of teaching. 

 

Dr. Logan knew he wanted to be a musician at an early age; however, God has more in store for his life.  In February 2009, Douglas accepted the call to the preaching ministry and begun his training at The Family Bible Ministries Worldwide Institute College Seminary in Baltimore, MD.  He enrolled in a dual degree program and earned a Master of Divinity in Pastoral Counseling in April 2010 and a Doctor of Philosophy in Pastor Counseling and Biblical Studies in August 2010.  In September of the same year, Dr. Logan enrolled in the Samuel DeWitt Proctor School of Theology at Virginia Union University.  He graduated in May 2012 with a Master of Divinity degree.

 

Dr. Logan was the Pastor and Founder of Life Builders Community Church February 1, 2010. After four years of leading Life Builders Dr. Logan was elected Pastor of Zion Hill Baptist Church.  In February 2014, Dr. Logan and all the members of Life Builders merged congregations with Zion Hill.  Dr. Logan was consecrated Bishop on February 2, 2019, in the Great Commission Ministries International by Bishop Asa Armbrister. 

 

Under Bishop Logan’s leadership the Zion Hill (#ZHILL) is continually beautifying our church. The church is growing and striving to become effective in all areas of ministry.  We are “Effectively Seeking a Better Relationship with Christ while being a Five Star Church!”   One of the highlights of worship during every service is our #SelfieInZHill moments, where the congregation pauses to take pictures with each other as we welcome our visitors and family to worship.
