Areas of Ministry: Oversees Children’s Church, AWANA, Wee Worship, Mission Groups, and all other children’s activities
Family: Temarie and I have been married for five wonderful years. Getting her to marry me was definitely my greatest achievement while in seminary.
Saved: I grew up in a pastor’s home as the second of seven children. I lived quite a sheltered life as a child (Temarie says I “grew up in a barn”). With the constant teaching of biblical truths from my parents, I was saved and baptized at an early age. I always wanted to enter the family business (all three brothers and father are in the ministry), but I was not exactly sure in what area of ministry until seminary. Having grown up with younger siblings always around, I have always loved working with children and am thankful for the opportunity to work with them full-time now.
Education: I graduated from Bryan College with a degree in Biblical Studies and from Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary with a Masters in Apologetics.
Previous Lines of Work: Everything from building houses to scrubbing toilets to selling ladies’ shoes to cleaning cars. You name it; I’ve probably had a job doing it.
FAVORITE Book: The Bible (second favorite – any apologetics, philosophical, nerdy-type books) Food: Hot Wings (that are not hot) Snack Food: Chocolate Chip Cookies Movie: The Dark Knight TV Shows: It was Lost until the abysmal series finale, now I don’t really have one…suggestions? Actors: Johnny Depp, Leonardo Di Caprio Time of Day: Bedtime Season: Summer Place in the World: Home Place to Pray: Office at home Recreational Activities/Hobbies: Basketball, piano, spending time with Temarie Scriptures: Proverbs 3:5-6 Bible Story: all of Revelation Sports Team: Kentucky Wildcats Sport: Basketball
LEAST FAVORITE Food: Seafood (if God wanted me to eat it, He would not have covered it with water) Time of Day: early morning Season: I used to live in Florida where there is only one season, HOT!, so I like all four now Sports Team: I’ll just give you a hint…it’s in NC and it’s blue Best Thing Someone Said to You: “Of course” (when I asked Temarie if she would marry me) Life Motto: God first, wife second, everything else after
