In February 2016, I began working as a contract researcher for Docent Research Group, an Austin-based, Christian, non-profit organization, where I worked on research and sermon briefs for Pastor Kevin Cawley of Redeemer Fellowship in Kansas City, MO (http://www.redeemerkansascity.org). I was then promoted to a solo researcher and worked with Lead Pastor Ryan Rice of North Valley Community Church (http://www.northvalleychurch.org). I continued serving in both a solo and team leader research role with Pastor Dr. Bob McCartney of FBC Wichita Falls, TX, a seminal SBC church with over 2,000 members (http://www.fbcwf.org). In all these roles, I essentially serve as an extension to the preaching ministry of these growing churches through providing research, exegesis, and connective tissue to help bring God's Word to life and resonate with contemporary culture.http://www.docentgroup.com.

Zebulon, Nc

I was ordained into the Gospel ministry by the elders and pastor, Dr. Gregory Lawson, at Union Chapel Baptist Church in Zebulon, NC on Sunday, January 18, 2015 and then served as an Associate Pastor before being called to be the pastor of Mays Chapel Baptist Church. I had previously served as an Assistant Pastor at Union Chapel Baptist Church from January 2014 - to January 18, 2015. Senior Pastor, Dr. Gregory Lawson, (Professor of Christian Education, Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary) is my mentor. My responsibilities include preparing sermons and preaching as needed, filling in and teaching adult and youth SS classes as needed, leading/teaching youth during AWANA and VBS programs, evangelistic outreach visitation, and assisting church with new ideas surrounding their DVD and internet outreach ministries.Given the proximity and connection through Dr. Lawson to Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminary (SEBTS), Dr. Lawson has supported me in implementing a mentoring/discipleship ministry to other seminary students involved in the graduate and undergraduate programs at SEBTS through a "preaching club" ministry that provides men who feel God's calling to preach and teach the Word, but who have not yet been called to pastor a church, an opportunity to exercise their gift of preaching in the mutually edifying, sharpening environment of their peers.
