Since I became a Christian in 1976, I have possessed a strong desire to understand the scriptures. To that end, I studied the Bible on the collegiate level for seven years and enjoyed every minute. I graduated from Fountain Gate Bible College in Plano, Texas, in 1985. That experience grew my devotion to Jesus Christ.
It was also there where I met and married my wonderful wife, Nancy, in 1983. We have always shared a passion to do ministry together. Yet, after graduating from Fountain Gate, I worked 29 years at Frito Lay Corporate Headquarters, Data Center, and Research and Development, retiring in 2016 as Facilities Automations Administrator for Frito Lay Headquarters. In that span, Nancy and I raised three sons, Ryan, Paul, and Travis, who came to faith in Jesus Christ and presently love God and serve Him with their unique talents.
Midway Church, in Pilot Point Texas, has been our local Church home for 23 years. Midway has provided a strong base for the ministries that have caused our lives to flourish for the sake of the Gospel of Jesus Christ.
My wife, Nancy, received her Bachelor of Business Administration with Honors at the University of Texas in Austin, 1979 before her training at Fountain Gate Bible College. She is experienced in C-Level support in both Corporate and International Religious Nonprofit Organizations. She is a seasoned Elementary school teacher of 24 years, advocating to help children from broken homes and with diverse learning disabilities. Those years provided Nancy with an extrordinary experience working with Children. Most notably, Nancy has been a wonderful wife and loving mother of our 3 boys of whom she has poured her faith into these many years.
Since 2010, Nancy and I have served at the Denton County Jail as vounteers. We have served at the Denton Freedom House since 2017 and since 2019 we have served as volunteers in the Texas Department of Criminal Justice (TDCJ). We love our roll in the capacity of Community Care providing pastoral ministry beyond the Church walls, valuing broken lives and sharing the gospel of Jesus Christ.
