About My Family
I am married to Amie. We have three children, Caleb, Nathaniel and Sarah.
About My Ministry
I am an SBC-endorsed healthcare chaplain serving as the manager of Spiritual Care and Marketing at Fitzgibbon Hospital in Marshall, Mo., and the associate pastor of Missions and Outreach at Katy Park Baptist in Sedalia. I am also the executive director of the Association of Certified Christian Chaplains and have led the board in certifying more than 400 chaplains since 2018.
In my work as a chaplain, I can often be heard singing hymns at dying patients’ bedsides as I used to sing professionally.

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, healthcare settings, correctional facilities, 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.
