About My Family
I served as a senior pastor in Missouri for 23 years before coming to Kentucky and in ministry since 1986. Lisa and I were high-school sweethearts and married in 1985. We have two daughters and four grandsons, Ellis, Brooks, Beau and Jaxx. Our little dogs, Dozer and Tripp, keep us busy at home.
About My Ministry
I serve as an SBC-endorsed disaster relief chaplain with the Kentucky Baptist Convention. I have been the disaster relief director for the Kentucky Baptist Convention since February of 2021. I have been involved with the Southern Baptist disaster relief ministry since 2003 and have been very active during those years. I am honored to serve in this role, equipping saints for the work of ministry.
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.
