John is originally from Biloxi, MS. It was at a local Vacation Bible School where he came into relationship with Jesus Christ at age nine. At age eleven his family moved to Hattiesburg, MS where John made a home in the Youth Ministry of The First Baptist Church. It was there that John really began his journey as a passionate follower of Jesus Christ. And it was on a summer mission trip at the age of fourteen that John first felt the call on his life to minister to students.

During high school John found many opportunities to serve God. John led the charge that brought The Fellowship of Christian Athletes organization to his high school. Plus, he spoke at numerous bible studies on campus and off.

John went on to spend three years in college studying world religions, philosophy, and biblical studies. While in college John served as Youth Director at Wesley Southern Methodist Church in Hattiesburg. During this time he was given numerous opportunities to speak to both high school and college students in venues such as church meetings, campus organizations, camps, retreats, and other various Christian organizations, etc.

John eventually followed God's tugging on him to move back to Biloxi and work in his families' property management company. But John's hiatus from ministry was short-lived and now he has responded to the call placed on his life by starting an itinerate ministry. John preaches in different types of venues all across the country. And everywhere he speaks his purpose is to convey to high school and college students alike the Good News of Jesus Christ and what He wants to do in their life. John brings sound biblical teaching in a way that is relevant to a younger generation.
