About My Family

We are a close knit family who love Jesus, Jiu Jitsu, and the outdoors! You can find us at church, on the mat or on the trail! We consider ourselves blessed to be able to “do ministry” together as a team and strive to reach the lost for Jesus.

Amanda and I have been married since 2006 and God has blessed us with two beautiful children. Our son, Warren, loves all forms of technology, and our daughter, Nora, is artistic beyond measure. More important than their skills in technology and art, Amanda and I are most proud that our children love the Lord. God surely blesses!

About My Ministry

I am currently serving as an SBC-endorsed Chaplain in the United States Army, ministering to our nation’s finest. What an honor is to serve God and country! I believe that today, more than ever, our military needs the light and love of Christ. Surely, the harvest is ripe, but the laborers are few.

Our sending church, Steadfast Baptist in Hodgenville, Ky., which I had the highest privilege and honor to pastor, is a loving group of God-fearing believers. If you are ever in central Kentucky on a Sunday, be sure to stop by and tell them that I sent you!

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.

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 for more to become missionaries and chaplains.
