Email


Glenn has served as Pastor of First Baptist Church of Ramsey since March 1998. Before that he served as a Youth minister in MO, a chaplain in TX, a Mission pastor, and an associate pastor in IL.

He earned a Bachelor of Arts in Pastoral Ministries from Southwest Baptist University, Bolivar, MO, a Master of Divinity from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Ft. Worth, TX, and a Doctor of Ministry from Covenant Theological Seminary in St. Louis, MO.

He married his college sweetheart in 1988 and has three wonderful children. He enjoys horseback riding, competitive volleyball, woodworking, and vacationing with his family.

He was born and raised in Sullivan, MO on a small farm and attended a thriving country church. During a revival service, God convicted Glenn of his need for a savior to escape the fires of hell. Glenn embraced Jesus and two years later surrendered to preach the Good News of Jesus to everyone at the tender age of nine. His local church recognized the calling of God on Glenn’s life and licensed him to preach at age 10. Glenn spent the next several years of his life preparing and now he is using his education, gifts, and talents to serve his Lord.
