Tex has over 16 years of student ministry experience. His student ministry philosophy is centered around building a culture that believes students aren’t just future leaders – they are each called by God to lead where they are today. As a leader, he strives to empower students to lead and own their faith. If you’d like to schedule a time to meet with Tex, click here!
Tex and his wife, Kelsey, have one daughter. Tex’s first and favorite ministry is his family, and he believes that the greatest legacy he can build is modeling to his family daily what being an apprentice of Jesus looks like.
