I am currently serving as youth minister at FBC McGregor TX.  I have been there for two years now.  I have had a number of opportunities to preach at this church as well.  This has been very beneficial for me because I feel called to Pastoral Ministry.  I taught College and Youth in Sunday School for three years at Central Baptist Church in Jacksonville TX.  While I was there I also served as the youth minister for the Eagle’s Nest ministry in Jacksonville.  I was licensed into the ministry by the former pastor of CBC before he resigned to to to FBC the Woodlands.  I am starting my third year at Truett and have plans to graduate next fall.

I did my undergrad work at a Baptist Seminary in Jacksonville where I received a Bachelor’s degree in Religion.  When I graduate from Truett my desire is to be a full time pastor, hopefully somewhere in TX, but I am not opposed to the possibility of leaving this state to do ministry.

I think that this class is going to help to further increase my knowledge of the Old Testament Scriptures.  I have studied the Bible for years but have always felt more comfortable within the pages of the New Testament.  I believe that all of Scripture has been purposefully recorded and should be studied and taught thoroughly.  I am very excited about getting into the prophets and learning more about the way that God’s message was communicated to His people through the words of the prophets.
