Pastor Jeff joined the First Baptist family in 2016. He is a native of Desoto, Texas. Jeff attended Baylor University where he met his wife, Traci. His degrees include a B.A. in Religious Studies from Baylor University, a Master of Divinity with Biblical Languages and a PhD from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Fort Worth, Texas.
