About My Family
The Lord blessed me with a wife who loves God and loves people.
The Lord also blessed us with two incredible children. I am truly proud to be their dad, and I can honestly say that they are both incredible human beings. I am indeed excited to see how the Lord uses them in the years to come to impact His kingdom and His people.
I must also say that I am inexplicably blessed to have been raised in a Christian home. My parents understood that it was paramount for me to know the Lord. I credit all I have been able to do and all that I am to the Lord and to the godly family and people He has placed around me.

SBC Chaplaincy
CChaplaincy 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.
