Meet Jim

Jim is in his 15th season with FCA Ministry – the first 9 years were in Tennessee, and he is now in his 6th year with Team Texas. Jim grew up in Knoxville, TN, and graduated from the University of Tennessee where he was a member of the UT Volunteer Football Team. As a Freshman, he became a Christian in a FCA Meeting. After graduation, he taught and coached HS Football and Track for 5 years in the Atlanta area where he also served as a FCA Sponsor. 

Jim left Coaching to pursue a family business opportunity back in Tennessee where he stayed involved in the FCA Ministry as a Board Member. After 12 years in Business, Jim answered a Call into full-time Vocational Ministry coming on staff with Nashville/Middle Tennessee FCA. Jim has also served with other Tennessee and Texas evangelical non-profit Ministries in the areas of Leadership and Development and just finished his 25th year of service in Ministry. 

Jim and Gina live in Keller (North Ft Worth) and have 5 children and 4 grandchildren. They attend Gateway Church North Richland Hills where Jim serves as a Deacon. Jim has been blessed to serve as an Area Director in North Tarrant County and loves to attend Football games and hike in the Mountains making occasional trips back to East Tennessee to do both.
