First Baptist

I gave my life to Christ at age 8, during a week-long preaching series, and was baptized just one year later in the church where I was raised. Having been brought up in the ministry of the church, it was early on that I sensed the Lord calling me into Christian Ministry. In fact, I can remember a third grade, “What I Want To Be When I Grow Up” homework assignment. Only one paper spoke of being a pastor – MINE! I began preaching while in high school and, during my first year of Bible college, accepted the call to my first church. From there, the Lord has given me so many exciting opportunities for ministry, but none compare to the joy of serving here at FBCNM!! This is, without question, home to our family!

I accepted Christ when I was 13 at boy’s camp, I’ve been at First Baptist for 9 years and I teach adult Sunday School. Married to Marilyn.

I've been walking with the Lord for 14 years.
My wife's name is Kelly; we've been married for 17 years. We have 4 children: Zachary 14, Jordan 13, Gretchen 9, and Michael 7. This will be my first year serving as a Elder. I'm looking forward to seeing God do wonderful things at First Baptist.
