His initial dream was to become a layer but changed his mind along the way because of a required Biblical course and a mission trip he took while at the University. He decided to become a missionary instead of a lawyer. Because of this change, he needed to get a degree in Bible and Biblical Studies and undergo two years of practical experience ministering to a church. He finished from Abilene Christian University with an MSc in Bible and Biblical Studies.

After his university graduation, he joined Central Church of Christ as an associate minister in Miami, Florida. After two years as an associate minister, he and his wife moved to Rio de Janeiro, Brazil to become full-time missionaries. He only spent five years in Brazil before moving back to the US with his family in order to be closer to his mother.
