Elder
James is an active duty officer in the U.S. Coast Guard, who the Lord led to Corpus Christi after commissioning in November of 2023. James is originally from Blairsville, GA., a small mountain community nestled in the Appalachian Mountains. James has been married to Tabitha since April of 2025, and they have the great joy of serving the church body together. Together, they enjoy hiking, coffee, card games, and farmers markets. They also have been blessed with their first child.
James is actively pursuing a Master's of Divinity from the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. Prior to joining the Coast Guard, James obtained a Bachelor's of Science in Criminal Justice from the University of Central Florida. During his time in Orlando, the Lord grew James in college ministry as the president of the local Baptist Collegiate Ministry, discipling others and organizing ways for the gospel to be spread in one of the nation's largest college campuses. After the Coast Guard, James and Tabitha seek to enter into church pastoralship and ministry full time.
