About My Family

My wife, Janet, and I have four children and the five BEST grandchildren. Apologies, we’re biased. While we realize that others’ grandchildren are precious to them, they all fall into second place to ours (LOL!).

About My Ministry

I am an SBC-endorsed chaplain serving with the Florida Baptist Disaster Relief, and I am also a chaplain with the Tallahassee Fire Department. I serve as the pastor of Shady Sea Missionary Baptist Church in Crawfordville, Florida.

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.

Pray

Pray for boldness to share the gospel and open hearts among the people to whom I minister. Pray for people to come to saving faith in Jesus. Pray more will become missionaries and chaplains.
