Youth Pastor
I surrendered to the ministry at the age of 16 while living and attending high school in Cisco,
Texas. My dad was a pastor of a small Baptist church in Cisco and supported my decision
to surrender to the ministry.
I earned a Bachelor of Science degree from Wayland Baptist University where I also played
baseball for the Pioneers. During my junior year, I was blessed to meet the wonderful woman
who would become my wife. Dawn and I were married on June 3rd, 2000 and had our first
child, Jackson, on March 27th, 2002. We have added two daughters to the family. Leah is
our daughter we adopted in 2011. Kendyl Grace came to us on January 4th, 2012.
I began my coaching and teaching career in Cotton Center, Texas, where I also began
helping with the youth program at FBC Cotton Center. After three years in Cotton Center,
our little family moved to Garden City, Texas, where I was teaching and coaching and Dawn
was commuting to Coahoma. With the help of some great friends, Dawn and I started a
community-wide Youth Ministry in Garden City.
After two years, Dawn and I were called to Rankin, where we have served for five years.
We both taught in the Rankin ISD, while I also served as the Youth Minister at FBC, Rankin.
I became an ordained minister in 2009 and began attending Southwestern Theological
Seminary in 2010.
We are very excited about our opportunity to serve at Immanuel and lead the youth in their
journey as believers in Christ.
Pray daily for your staff, as we submit ourselves to a Servant Savior
"Go into all the world and make disciples..."
I graduated Angelo State University in 1986. Upon graduation, I began a career in the retail
world while remaining very active in our church. In fact, Immanuel Baptist Church was my first
church home ever. My retail career demanded that my family move to different places within
the state fairly often. While serving in churches as we moved from place to place, I began to
sense the Lord’s calling to full-time ministry.
In 1995, my family began making the necessary changes in order to enter into the ministry.
To our surprise, the Lord was making His own preparations. The church we were serving in
at the time, called me as a full-time staff member within weeks.
My journey in ministry has been anything but ordinary. I have been able to serve in churches
of different sizes in Texas and Virginia. My responsibilities in ministry have been just as diverse
as the churches we served. Many times I am reminded of the promise to Jacob, "Behold, I am
with you and will keep you wherever you go, and will bring you back to this land; for I will not
leave you until I have done what I have promised you." (Genesis 28:15)
Becky and I are excited to have returned to Immanuel Baptist Church to serve in a different
capacity. Our focus never changes, we want to love God, love His people, and those who will
choose to be His people.
Becky and I have been married since 1985 and have chosen to serve our God together.
We have been blessed with four wonderful children and one grandchild.
