What is your story?
For a lot of my life, I had a mostly intellectual faith that knew a lot but didn’t actually engage in a personal relationship with Jesus. My identity was defined by my performance, which can go pretty well when performance is good. But it will eventually fall. Throughout my time playing college football at Ouachita Baptist, injuries and other factors did just that. During that time, the Lord patiently transformed my heart and mind to be defined by grace and not by anything I can do. As He did this, I became more and more passionate about the transformation that was taking place in me. And in early 2023, I felt the Lord urging me to pursue ministry in a greater capacity. That summer I interned for a church in Little Rock, and during the school year I had the opportunity to lead the FCA on campus and a weekly bible study for the football players. I’m thrilled to be on staff now to learn and serve with an amazing community at Rockpointe.
