About My Family

I am married to Dr. Donna Peavey. She is a professor of Christian Education at New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary.

Our daughter, Olivia, is currently completing her bachelor’s degree. We have a dog named Suki.

About My Ministry

I am an SBC-endorsed chaplain serving through Baptist Community Ministries (BCM) at Bridge House/Grace House, a drug and alcohol rehabilitation program. I serve as the chaplain there for both clients and staff.

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 those struggling with alcohol and drug addiction. Pray for me as I share God’s love and compassion with those I serve. Pray people will come to saving faith in Jesus. Pray more will become missionaries and chaplains.

Participate

Commit to long-term prayer support. Explore the opportunities to extend your church's reach by becoming a chaplain. Be involved in supporting chaplains and their families. Send notes of encouragement. Talk with a chaplain about his or her ministry context. Send resources that support a chaplain’s ministry context. Pray for chaplains and their families.
NAMB does not provide compensation for SBC endorsed chaplains. However, a general fund is available to receive donations in support of the ministry and pastoral care to SBC endorsed chaplains. To donate, please visit Support Chaplaincy (missionaries.namb.net/projects/full/chaplaincy).
