He is a native of Wichita, Kansas where he graduated from Wichita South High School (1969); and from Wichita State University (Bachelors in Education – 1973). Jeff has spent much of his adult life serving in church staff positions, first as a Youth Minister, then as Pastor, in Maryland, Nebraska, and Virginia. He is a graduate of Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Ft. Worth, Texas (Master of Divinity – 1979). In October and November of 1992, Jeff traveled to the central region of Argentina, South America where he participated in a missions/evangelism campaign with a team of 10 others, over a period of 15 days. He and his family (Wife -- Beth / Children -- Stephen and Amy) are currently active members of New Prospect Baptist Church in Dry Prong, Louisiana, where Beth serves as Church Organist.

Jeff enjoys his family, family outings, team sports, and reading inspirational books, as well as an occasional Louis L’Amour western, or a mystery by Agatha Christie. Recreational interests include baseball, softball, bowling, swimming, and basketball. In 1968, he was a member of the Kansas High School state baseball championship team, and in 1969, led the Senior Rookie summer league in hitting with a .407 batting average. He also still delights in opportunities to preach and teach, having done so in several churches in Central Louisiana over the past year.
