BI-VOCATIONAL PASTOR
My Personal Testimony
I was not raised in a Christian home, but I was fortunate to have a great grandmother who planted the seed of the gospel in me. I did attend church throughout my teenage years and God sent some strong influences into my life and those relationships are still strong today. I was finally saved on April 17, 2003. I was called to preach in January 2005 at Shiloh Baptist Church in Scottsboro, AL. The Lord has moved us a few times since then, always into a position where I had a larger leadership role. I was fortunate to serve under, and learn from, some great men of God along the way. I have made some great friendships and developed long lasting relationships that I still cherish. I am a student of the Bible, and I love to study and learn and pass that along to those God allows me to minister to. My life verse is Galatians 2:20, "I am crucified with Christ: nevertheless I live; yet not I, but Christ liveth in me: and the life which I now live in the flesh I live by the faith of the Son of God, who loved me, and gave himself for me".
Professional Profile
I am determined, hardworking, and competent. I have 10 years experience in leadership and management, as well as 4 years of bi-vocational pastoral ministry. I am known for preaching the Bible, promoting church unity, and establishing the church's long and short term goals. I am a multitasker and I put great energy into time management, prioritizing, and team efficiency. It is my desire to serve a local church in a Pastor/Shepherd role, to see the body of Christ expanded, and to see Christ exalted.
