My wife, Joy, and I joined First Baptist Church in Springfield, MO in January of 2022. We have two daughters: Haley and Sydney both of which are stay at home moms. We also enjoy three grandchildren.

I have many hobbies including fishing, gardening, and playing classical guitar. I also love socializing and learning about people. I have a Bachelor of Biblical Studies Degree and a Master’s of Theological Studies from Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary. Seeing people come to Christ and grow in relationship with Him in the local church is my passion.

“For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this is not from yourselves, it is the gift of God— not by works, so that no one can boast.”
Eph. 2:8-9.
