About My Family
After 15 years of enlisted service in the Navy and Navy Reserve, three church plants, four children and 19 years of marriage, my wife, Eliza, and I are serving at my first Army chaplain duty in the famous 101st Airborne at Fort Campbell, Ky.
Our four daughters are Elleora (17), Gwyneth (15), Rowan (12) and Aralynn (10). The military lifestyle is always difficult on children, but our girls are resilient and able to understand the opportunities this adventure brings to our family as they continue to work through leaving their friends, schools and community every few years.
We call Kentucky home but have lived in Idaho, Illinois, Virginia, California and Texas. As a family we enjoy traveling, playing music together and martial arts.

SBC Chaplaincy
Chaplaincy is a vital frontline ministry and extension of the local church. Chaplains reach the lost among the thousands of men and women in the U.S. Armed Forces, correctional facilities, healthcare settings, public safety, disaster relief sites and corporate environments. SBC Chaplains care for the broken, offer hope to the hopeless and advance the gospel of Jesus Christ in hard to reach places.
The qualifications expected of a Southern Baptist applying for endorsement as a chaplain are established by the using agency and the Chaplains Commission, SBC. These qualification requirements vary according to the type of chaplaincy involved but all are expected to meet a high level of ministerial competence.
