It all started in 2001. It was the same Wednesday night like every night; go to school, then go to church as my mom drops me off at Berean Baptist Church in Mesquite, Texas. All of a sudden during the lesson, I heard a voice saying Shaun “listen to me, I have come for everyone, but tonight you are mine.” After, the service I went to Kelly Reagan who was the children’s pastor at the time. He pulled me in the gym and went down the Romans Road with me in that moment I accepted that I was a sinner, and accepted Jesus Christ in my heart at the age of eleven years old. Later, when I went to a winter camp at Baptist Bible College at the age of fourteen. Brian Moore the guest speaker was talking about the whole week to work on team Jesus. He spoke about how there is more to do for Jesus than just being saved. That moment on a cold Wednesday night in the Boland  Hall I surrender my life to full-time ministry. The second best decision in my life when God brought my wife, Jennifer to my life. We met during our time at BBC.  We got married on June 8, 2013. Since then we now have two boys: Lincoln (3) and Duke (born in 2017). We recently just adopted a lab mix puppy name Bear. I graduated Baptist Bible College in 2014 with a bachelors degree in Pastoral Studies. Currently I am the youth pastor at the church at River Oaks in Greenville, Texas. My motto for the youth is “You’re not just kids, you’re Leaders.” That is something I believe in, by having a student leadership team and giving them jobs in the church to show what serving looks like.

I have led the middle school youth, and the youth ministry as a whole. I brought ideas for guests, student leadership, even decorating our new youth room! I have helped the Pastor and Family Life pastor organize church events and help see the plans through for our city wide mission project called For the City where our church leads the Food drive. I have spent this time encouraging and leading the students showing them a life of serving all while planning out events for the year, picking a camp to attend, and attending important events in their lives.
