Leadership

Chris was called into ministry while teaching high school and coaching baseball in the public school system in Oklahoma. At that time, he attended New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary and earned a Masters of Divinity with a specialization in Pastoral Ministry. He has served in full time ministry in Oklahoma, Mississippi, Louisiana, and Georgia. He wants most to see lives changed by Christ  and to walk alongside believers as God grows them into more fully devoted followers of Him. Chris and his wife, Alisha, have two daughters, Katelyn and Evelyn , and two sons, Henry and Owen. He started at EFBC in Oct. of 2018 and is very excited about all that God has planned for our church and community.
