Since 2011, Pastor Brian has led Tri-County Baptist Church with a passion for teaching God’s Word with accuracy and personal application. With a background that ranges from the mission fields of Vietnam to the halls of Carolina University as Dean of Students, Brian brings a wealth of life experience and a shepherd’s heart to our congregation.
His commitment to the local church is backed by a Master of Ministry from Piedmont Divinity School and extensive training in Biblical Counseling. Beyond his local ministry, Brian frequently travels overseas to teach at Bible Institutes, sharing his love for Scripture with people groups around the world.
Brian and his wife, Lynn, have celebrated 40 wonderful years of marriage. Family is at the center of his life, including his three sons, their wives, and four energetic grandchildren. An avid outdoorsman, Brian enjoys the quiet of camping and gardening—and the significantly less quiet atmosphere of Ohio State Football Saturdays.
