OUR MISSION & VISION

To Be A Church that Loves God, Loves People, And Makes Disciples.

We do this by worshiping, growing, and serving together.

WORSHIP

Join us each Sunday @ 11 AM as we love God and gather together to worship our Lord and Savior, Jesus Christ, through the preaching of His word, prayer, baptism, and communion.

GROW

Spiritual growth happens best in community. Being involved in a group is the best way to receive spiritual care, fellowship, find community, grow together, and make disciples.

SERVE

God has given gifts to each of his children. Each week we gather to love people by using our God given gifts for the encouragement and edification of Jesus' church.

Our Values

Because we believe that God primarily reveals himself and teaches us through His word we desire to share and know God’s word, the Bible, and help others do the same.

We preach the bible as the authoritative and sufficient word of God. Here at Freestone Baptist we believe in Expositional Preaching. This means that we most often will be preaching verse by verse through entire books of the Bible, attempting to make the main point of the text the main point of our sermons.

Because we believe that we are dependent on God for our lives and spiritual growth, we value prayer.

We desire to center our lives on the good news of the person and work of Jesus Christ and know how this truth changes our hearts, motives, and lives.

We are relational beings created by God to know others and be known. The New Testament describes the church as a people, not a building, so we desire to center our lives on the Gospel of Jesus Christ and allow him to form us into a community.

Because we believe that the Gospel is the world’s only hope in life and death, we desire to live our daily lives as those sent by God to help others trust and follow Jesus.

Pastor

I have been serving as pastor of Freestone Baptist Church since May of 2021. I have been married to my wife Kristen since 2017 and we have 2 great kids: Deacons & Gracen. 

Kristen and I grew up right here in Freestone County. We're excited to raise our own children right here in the community that raised us. 

I have been in ministry since 2012 and have served in churches in Jacksonville, TX, New Salem, TX, and Maydelle, TX. 

I attended the Baptist Missionary Association Theological Seminary in Jacksonville, TX and received both a B.A. in Religion and a M.A. in Church Ministries.

I have a desire to help people have all of Christ for all of life. This begins by understanding that every saved person has been gifted by God to serve Him and others - first in their homes, then their church and community

I am a bi-vocational pastor. This means that I have a full-time job apart from the church. This gives me the opportunity to live on mission in the community, and understand where many of you are who are working 40-70+ hours a week. 

My hobbies include bbq, hunting, fishing, and camping/traveling with my family.

Baptist Missionary Association
