With over 25 years of experience in local church ministry, Brad has guided churches through leadership, decision-making, and governance challenges. He understands firsthand how unclear structures can cause confusion and how effective governance provides clarity, aiding the church in fulfilling The Great Commission.
Brad has a Doctor of Ministry degree from New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary. ‘Faithful and Clear: A Pastor’s Guide To Church Governance: Constitutions, Bylaws, Policies, And Procedures‘ expands on that foundation by translating the ideas from his doctoral project into practical tools that pastors and church leaders can use in their daily ministry.
He is passionate about equipping leaders to strengthen the church’s foundation so they can focus on what matters most, making disciples and advancing the Gospel.
“While it’s important to focus on fixing structures, updating policies, and correcting governance documents, let’s remember that these are just tools to support our main mission: the Great Commission. Healthy governance is there to serve that purpose, not replace it. As leaders, our true goal isn’t just to have a well-organized nonprofit, but to guide faithful churches that passionately share the life-changing message of the Gospel with others.”
