I am thankful that God allowed me to grow up in a Christian home. My parents and grandparents made church a priority, and at age 8, I understood the gospel for the first time and responded by trusting Jesus as my Savior. I married my wife Nikki in 2002 and we welcomed our daughter, Sheridan, in 2004. I received my undergrad degree in Information Technology and have served in audio/visual ministry for many years. I thought that would be my career but that was the door God used to get me into full-time ministry, ultimately calling me to preach and teach His Word. I graduated from Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary with a Master of Divinity in 2021. In my free time, I love spending time with my family and visiting new places. During COVID, Nikki and I started hiking just to get outside and moving. It became our new favorite thing to do! I am grateful and humbled to be a part of what God is doing at Grace Baptist and excited to see what He will continue to do!
