About Brad
I have been serving in ministry since 1993 and was ordained as a minister in 1996. I have a deep passion for teaching the Bible and sharing the gospel. Since June 2016, I have had the privilege of serving as the Senior Pastor of Southmont Baptist Church.
I earned my Master of Divinity degree from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary. Throughout my years in ministry, my desire has been to faithfully communicate God’s Word, help people grow in their relationship with Christ, and encourage others to live out their faith.
I have been married to my wife, Cari, since May 1992. Together, we have five children and two grandchildren, who are a tremendous source of joy and blessing to our family.
Outside of ministry, I enjoy spending time outdoors and following and participating in a variety of sports, with a special love for playing golf.
I am grateful for the opportunity to serve God, my family, and the people of Southmont.
