I’ve been in full time teaching ministry for the last 10 years and I’m so excited to see a life-giving community with Biblical teaching and passionate worship in Fairview! I’m a graduate of the National Institute of Christian Leadership and received my Master’s degree in Ministry Leadership from Richmont Graduate University. I married the love of my life, Amanda, and have four amazing kids. My heart is to see our people understand who they are in Christ!

I moved to Nashville 25 years ago to pursue my dream of a music career. After performing professionally for 15 years, I received my Master’s Degree in Education from Lipscomb University in 2012 and was immediately offered a teaching position at Fairview Middle School. I taught middle school theatre from 2013-2020 and after receiving a Doctorate from Lipscomb University, accepted a position on this team as an Executive Pastor. My beautiful wife, Heather, and I, along with our two amazing kids, Sydni and Jordan, reside in Fairview. It is our desire to build Jesus loving disciples and serve all, with all that He has given us.

My wife, Sherry, and I moved here from Helena, Alabama. Together we have nine grown children and nineteen grandchildren. We sold our general contracting business, of thirty-two years, in July 2021 to transition into full-time vocational ministry. God has miraculously ordained every step in bringing us to Fairview. We love people and are passionate about helping those in need. We are graduates of the NICL – National Institute of Christian Leadership. I completed my Master of Arts in Ministry Leadership from Richmont Graduate University. I enjoy family, fishing, coaching, and helping others. It’s all about relationships.

I am a Nashville transplant since 2011, originally pursuing a music career as a singer/songwriter, and most recently a career in music management for celebrities and entertainers. I have been a worship team volunteer from the age of 14, so my love of music stems from a love of worship at an early age. My husband, Josh, and I relocated to Fairview from Nashville at the end of 2020 with the prayer that we would find a local church to call home, and I am thrilled to say we have found that with this church and team! My passion is to continue developing a culture among our members that leads to life-altering connection with Him through worship!

I’ve been in ministry since 2014 and am passionate about the next generation, seeing families win, and building a bridge for families in this community as the Next Gen Director. My husband Thomas and I have one child and can often be found cheering on the Nashville Predators, watching College Football on Saturdays, and having dance parties in our kitchen!

I moved to Tennessee in 2020 to attend a discipleship program at Narrow Gate Foundation. I realized then that I was being called to pursue vocational ministry full time and have since accepted a full-time position with the Next Gen team. While spending time with these students, I’ve seen many struggling with the same battles that I had growing up. I feel as though God has brought me here to help provide Biblical counsel to that generation. I’m excited to see how God continues to provide His truth to help each student navigate their own personal walk with Him.
