Pastor and Youth Pastor of the First Baptist Church of Van Horn, Texas and Lead Communicator at www.follow452.com
El Paso, Texas Area
I've been developing a huge passion for seeing believers be discipled, not just converted to a religion or denomination, but nurtured into true followers of Jesus Christ. I've become somewhat delirious and desperate in my passion for this, as I believe that God has placed a vision before me to see a generation captivated with Christ and a generation of individuals that have for far too long been comfortable and silent, take up the cross and lead others in following Him side by side. I believe that it is time for a more powerful generation of those in follow-ship with Christ to rise up beyond that which has been seen in former years, who have been more about getting people to repeat a prayer or become a church member than about walking with people, pointing them to Christ along the way.
