Lead Pastor

Preaching God’s Word is crucial to every healthy church. My primary duty and privilege as Lead Pastor of Dixie Baptist is to provide our people a steady diet of God’s Word. We long to see lives changed by the gospel of Jesus Christ and lives built on that same gospel. We want disciples to grow in Christlikeness, reach lost people for Jesus, and make disciples who make disciples.

Jeremy and Amanda married in 2006 and have been blessed with four children: Micah, Caleb, Silas, and Rachel. Jeremy and Amanda met at and graduated from The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary in Louisville, an institution from which Jeremy has earned a Masters of Divinity degree and a Ph.D. in Applied Apologetics. They have lived in southern Arizona where Jeremy spent 12+ years pastoring a local church. They are grateful to be serving Jesus here in southern MS through Dixie Baptist Church!
