To quote the great theologian John Cougar Mellancamp, I was born in a small town. I grew up in Tifton, GA (actually TyTy) and graduated from Tift County High School. I graudated from the greatest University in the land, the University of Georgia, in 2000. Then I graduated with my M.Div. from New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary in a short 6 years.
I am currently the minister to students at the First Baptist Church in LaGrange, GA. You can check out our website at www.fbclagrange.org/youth. God is doing some great things in our student ministry and I am glad to just be a part of it. My call in ministry eventually is to pastor. I love the Word and love being able to teach it. That is my passion.
I am truly blessed to have a wonderful family. Katie is the love of my life and we have been married for 3 great years. We have the coolest son on the planet, Charlie. He is going to be a scholar, an athlete, a musician, and a Southern gentleman. He is 19 months old and does cool new tricks every day.
I love fresh apple cider from North Georgia and a good steak. I am borderline fanatical about my DAWGS football. I love to fish and to play guitar. I love my Taylor, but right now I’m in an electric guitar/pedal guru mode. My pedals of choice right now are a Visual Sound Route 66 compression/overdrive and a Boss DD6 Digital Delay.
