My beautiful wife, Valerie, is a 2011 graduate from East Tennessee State University and a loving stay-at-home mother of two. Valerie was born November 11th from Yuma, Arizona. Valerie and her family moved to East Tennessee during her high school years so her father could attend Emmanuel School of Religion and become a pastor. He is currently the pastor of Central Christian Church in Jonesborough, TN.

Brooklyn and Hailey

Our romance began in the Fall of 2005. We were both members of a college ministry called The Well (website). Our our annual leadership retreat Valerie said she heard me laughing from across the room and knew that she wanted to meet me. After being introduced it was not long until we began dating. On August 4, 2007 we were married at Central Christian Church.

In February 2009 we learned as a family that we would be expecting our first child. Hailey Danielle Hendrix was born September 24th, 2009 at Johnson City Specialty Hospital. In June 2011 we discovered that God was blessing us again with the birth of our second child. Brooklyn Renee Hendrix was born March 14, 2012 at Franklin Woods Community Hospital.

Not to us, Lord, not to us but to Your name be the glory, because of Your love and faithfulness
