Grace Church Assembly of God

Pastor Randy grew up in a military family of six as the oldest of four children. During his high school years he led a number of rock bands as a lead guitarist in the southeast United States. Later, during his six year tour of duty as guitarist/ vocalist for the U.S. Navy Band, the Lord called him to use his talents for ministry. Upon his honorable discharge, he began scheduling engagements as a "musicianary" humorist and songwriter. After earning a Bachelor of Biblical Studies, he became a licensed minister and received an endorsement from the Tennessee District of the Assemblies of God to launch a missions church in La Vergne, Tennessee. Several years later he received his ordination. In the context of God's vision for Grace Church Worship and Community Center, the pastor especially enjoys focusing on worship music, songwriting, improvisation, messages, and men's ministry. Pastor Randy is blessed in life and ministry by his lovely wife Jackie and two wonderful daughters, Melissa and Melody.
