As a member of Ranch View Baptist Church, I have been actively participating in the spiritual growth of our adult congregation. I spearhead a dynamic weekly adult Bible study, focusing on systematic theology and fostering in-depth discussions. Additionally, I have lead the first-hour adult Sunday school, where I have been responsible for teaching and leading prayer. I occasionally preach during Sunday services, and I take great joy in discipling and counseling brothers in Christ, helping them grow in their faith and navigate life's challenges. This role has allowed me to combine my passion for teaching and mentorship with my deep commitment to spiritual leadership.

I played a key leadership role in helping to establish and grow a rural church plant, working alongside other elders. During this time, we achieved significant growth, increasing membership to approximately 60 members within just 18 months. My contributions spanned various leadership responsibilities, including preaching, leading prison evangelism, facilitating small groups, and overseeing the prayer ministry. I was also actively involved in developing the church's foundational structure, helping to establish governance, bylaws, budgeting, ministries, and long-term vision. This experience allowed me to hone my leadership and organizational skills while making a meaningful impact on the community.

I engaged with inmates across several jails and prisons in Southwest Missouri, sharing messages of hope and redemption through faith in Christ. This experience deepened my understanding of the transformative power of faith and reinforced my commitment to serving others in challenging circumstances.

During our company Christmas party in 2017, our staff at Calvary Properties united as a team to fill 120 shoeboxes for #OperationChristmasChild. It was an incredible experience! All 120 boxes were shipped to Mexico, bringing joy and the hope of the gospel of Jesus Christ to many children.

From June 2011 to June 2015, I served as the Director of Sunday School for grades 4-6 at Mansfield Bible Church. In this role, I was responsible for overseeing and delivering weekly Bible lessons, ensuring that they were engaging, educational, and accessible to young learners. My leadership involved developing age-appropriate curricula, fostering a positive learning environment, and encouraging spiritual growth among the children. This experience allowed me to combine my passion for education and ministry while making a meaningful impact on the church’s youth.
