Jeff was raised in Southern California.  He grew up going to church with his family, and came to know the Lord at 8 years old.  However, he did not really grow much until a fellow student discipled him during his freshman year in college.  Jeff followed a calling to vocational ministry while in college.  He graduated from Texas A&M University (1986. BS) and Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary (1990 MDiv & 2013 DMin).  He has served as a pastor for churches in California, Mississippi, and Texas.  Jeff married his wife, Suzy, in 1989 and they have two adult children and 4 grandchildren.  Jeff loves working with senior adults and any person wanting to grow closer to Jesus.  Many Senior Adults inspire him by their years of faithful service to the Lord and several decades of marriage!  Jeff enjoys doing handyman work, watching Aggie football, walking for exercise, and playing chess.
