Objective:
|
|
I would like to serve as preaching and teaching pastor/elder within a small, family-integrated, Baptist church.
|
Ministry:
|
|
I was saved by God's grace and baptized into the fellowship of the First Baptist Church of Woodland Mills, TN in 1975.
I surrendered to the Gospel ministry at Rock Springs Baptist Church in Greenbrier, TN in 2002.
I was licensed to the Gospel ministry by Adams Chapel Baptist Church in Dresden, TN in 2005.
Since 2003, I have served as youth minister, and also associate pastor / minister of education.
I am committed to proclaiming the wonderful doctrines of God's Grace through expository preaching.
The ultimate goal of my ministry is the discipleship of all the members of the Christian family so that they can be a light on a hill that brings glory to God.

I have been married to my wife Suzanne since 1987 and we have three wonderful children all of which are homeschooled.
I am currently a member of Adams Chapel Baptist Church in Dresden, TN, but I am serving as a supply pastor for churches in my local area.
I also assist with the preaching and teaching at Covenant Family Fellowship which is a non-denominational family-integrated church in South West KY.
I am a member of the advisory council of the Southern Baptist Church and Home Education Association which is involved in assisting and encouraging Christian parents to give their children a Christ centered education.
And I am also in full agreement with the Abstract of Principles and the 1689 London Baptist Confession of Faith.
