“Preaching God’s Word is crucial to every healthy church. My primary duty and privilege as Lead Pastor of Dixie Baptist is to provide our people a steady diet of God’s Word. We long to see lives changed by the gospel of Jesus Christ and lives built on that same gospel. We want disciples to grow in Christlikeness, reach lost people for Jesus, and make disciples who make disciples.”
“Our youth and college students are the future of the church and the future leaders of society. Discipling those students is truly raising up and equipping the next generation to follow Christ while having an impact on the world around them. I am thankful for those who made investments in my life during my early adulthood and now I am thankful for the opportunity to do the same with this next generation.”
“Colossians 1:27-29 - To them God chose to make known how great among the Gentiles are the riches of the glory of this mystery, which is Christ in you, the hope of glory. Him we proclaim, warning everyone and teaching everyone with all wisdom, that we may present everyone mature in Christ. For this I toil, struggling with all his energy that he powerfully works within me.”
“God has placed a passion for worship in my heart. Worship is not just what we do on Sunday or Wednesday night, it is a lifestyle. It is giving the glory to God in all that we do from when we wake to when we lie down. It’s not about what we get out of it but singly about God.”
“My goals for the Children's Ministry at Dixie Baptist Church are to deepen biblical knowledge, lead children to Christ, and disciple them as young Christians. It is my sincere desire and prayer to raise up our children to be servants for Christ."
