IN HIS WORDS – I am son of a Southern Baptist Minister. All
of my life, my parents have been involved in the ministry. So, God
and church have been the main focus in my life. I accepted Jesus into
my heart at age 8. I have not been perfect; I just serve a perfect
Lord and Savior in Jesus Christ. I am married to a wonderful wife
of 14 years and we have 3 great kids. My wife and I send our children
to a Christian school where she is a teacher.
I live each day looking to make it better for those that come after
me.
