Michael McClure, Jr (born c. 1983) is founder and pastor of The Rock Church (Fultondale).

McClure, son of minister Michael McClure, Sr, graduated from Minor High School, and attended University of West Alabama to play football, but dropped out after three years after he felt he was called into ministry.

McClure founded The Rock Church in 2009 at Miles College, then moved the congregation to L. R. Hall Auditorium in downtown Birmingham. In 2010, the church purchased the former West Birmingham Christian School's 12-acre campus in Forestdale.

McClure's brother, Darius, a former starter for Bobby Bowden's Florida State football team, serves as chief of staff for The Rock Church.
