The Christian Post reports:
An Alabama pastor and church planter who led Landmark Church in Phenix City is being held in the Russell County Jail after he was arrested last month in connection with an armed bank robbery along with a female accomplice.
A representative with the Russell County Court confirmed on Wednesday that 40-year-old former Landmark Church Lead Pastor Kevin Robert McDonald was still in custody following his Dec. 27 arrest in connection with the armed robbery of Phenix City Girard Bank.
Authorities told WRBL that McDonald entered the bank with a handgun and demanded money before taking off with an undisclosed sum. No one was injured and McDonald was arrested and charged in Columbus with first-degree robbery. He has not yet been able to post a $100,000 bond.
From a cache of the church’s website:
Pastor Kevin and wife Jennifer have been married for over 20 years and together have three children, Toby (19) Brady (16), and Olivia (10). They both came to know the LORD on January 9, 2009, and have spent the last 15 years spreading the love of God. Kevin was ordained through Nazarene Bible College.
He has pastored churches in California, North Carolina, Kansas, and Missouri and planted over 15 new churches along the way.
Kevin’s passion for preaching and living in community with God’s people has enabled him to lead thousands to Christ and baptize over 600 people over the last 15 years. Jennifer loves serving within the church and most of all being a mom to her three children and pursuing her career in the medical field.
The female alleged accomplice was not his wife.

McDonald, who entered a bank in Phenix City with a handgun and demanded money, had a female accomplice also recently taken into custody.
