About My Church Plant
I was a youth pastor for 17 years at First Baptist Church in Woodstock, Ga. I then served as the campus pastor for Woodstock Panama City Beach, Fla. We felt God calling us to a new chapter, which led us to plant a church in Columbus, Ohio. Our passion and vision for the church is to help people:
BECOME Jesus followers.
GROW in their relationship with Jesus and the Father.
CONNECT with a local church in worship and small groups.
SHARE in the mission of God locally and globally.
We want to be a church that reaches people with the gospel and sends them out to reach others. We want our community to say, "What would we do without Watermark Church?" We desire to become a reproducing church that helps launch and revitalize churches for the glory of God. We hope to invest in new churches, just as others have invested in us.

NAMB Church Planting
Millions living in North America have not been reached with the gospel. But a new church makes change possible in an unreached neighborhood.
Send Network church planters immerse themselves in a community, learning the rhythms and culture as they establish relationships with the lost. A church plant grows out of the evangelism efforts of the planter and his core team.
