Occupation Youth Minister
Location Herrin, Illinois, United States
Introduction My first and foremost passion is my Lord Jesus Christ. He is the reason I'm alive and forgiven of all my sins, both now and forever. I've accepted this by faith only because of God's grace. God saved me at the age of 12 at Calvary Baptist Church in Union City, TN, and He is continuing to sanctify me daily, though I have not yet attained to full maturity. My aim is to please Him and give glory to Him continually. I am married to Christina and have 5 beautiful children- Elizabeth, Jonathan, Benjamin, Isaac, and Rachel. I am currently serving as Pastor of Youth and Worship at First Baptist Church in Herrin, IL. My life is but a vapor and, God willing, I intend to use this short time seeking Him and making disciples.
