We have had the privilege of ordaining 3 new elders recently! Praise God! We know that it can be hard to get to know leadership sometimes, so we thought that it would be fun to do a blog series introducing each new pastor and a few fun facts about them. This week we want to introduce you to Pastor
What first brought you to Veritas?
In Spring 2017, the Army PCS’d me to Fort Bragg. When I arrived, I found Veritas through a church network website. I visited my first Sunday in town, and I’ve been here ever since! My wife joined me here at Veritas when we got married in Summer of 2019.
Tell us about your role at Veritas.
In addition to serving as one of our elders, I also get the opportunity to serve as our Director of Service Teams. It is a great joy of mine to be able to help the members of our church find a place to use their spiritual gifts to serve the body. For however long God gives me the opportunity to serve as an elder in His church, my hope is that I would spend that time loving and caring for Veritas Church and helping them believe the good news of the gospel in every area of life.
What are some of your hobbies?
My favorite hobby is sports! I follow and/or play just about every sport out there. My friends often give me a hard time and have nicknamed me “ESPN 8 The Ocho” for my interest in so many (sometimes obscure) sports.
What’s your favorite beverage?
Unsweet tea is my go-to drink, but I can hammer a Diet Coke every now and then too.
What is the last fiction book that you read?
Tale of Two Cities by Chuck Dickens
