Date / Place of Birth -  I was born on Jan 16, 1954 in Athens Ga. and have lived here all my life.
 
Education / Experience - I have a BBA from UGA and I graduated in 1978.  I have been Pastor of Crossroads Church for 21 years.

Salvation Experience - I was saved when I was 9 years old and felt the call to ministry in my teens. About 15 or so. I went on my first missions trip when I was 17 to Costa Rica. After finishing college, I remained in the family business until I started pastoring in 1988. 
 
Favorite Things about Crossroads - The things I like about Crossroads the most are the people and the style of worship. I love working with Chris and the many volunteers who help make Crossroads what it is.
 
Family members - The members of my family are : Joy, my wife of 33 years, my daughters, Kellie and Kerrie. Kellie is married to Adam Spier and Kerrie is married to Matthew Lang. Joy and I are very thankful for our son-in-laws and what they bring to our family. My Mother and Father are still very active in the church, along with my 3 brothers, Lamar, David, & Jeff.
 
Hobbies - My hobbies have changed as the years have gone by. I use to love to play softball but the abilities are no longer there. However, I still enjoy re-building cars and I enjoy picture framing.
 
Secret Ambition - One of my secret ambitions is to pitch the winning game of the World Series.
