About My Ministry
I am an SBC-endorsed National Guard Chaplain currently serving in Florida and am in the process of transferring to Louisiana.
I also serve as the discipleship pastor at First Baptist Church in Willis, Texas, where I oversee adult ministries, discipleship and assimilation—from first-time guests to active service. Additionally, I regularly preach and support the church’s spiritual growth initiatives.

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 or counselor are established by their institution and the Chaplains Commission, SBC. These qualification requirements vary according to the type of chaplaincy or counseling ministry involved but all are expected to meet a high level of ministerial competence.
