Larry has been Senior Pastor of Hilldale since 2002. He’s married to his college sweetheart, Beth, and they’ve been blessed with six children and two sons-in-law.

A native west Tennessean, Larry was born and raised in Savannah, TN. He was born again at the age of ten and baptized into the fellowship of Hopewell Baptist Church in Savannah. Hopewell also licensed and ordained Larry into the Gospel ministry in 1982 and 1987, respectively.

Larry holds a B.A. degree from Blue Mountain College in northeast Mississippi and two graduate degrees—M.Div. and Ph.D.—from New Orleans Baptist Theological Seminary.

Larry enjoys spending time with his family, traveling, reading, and watching movies in his spare time. And coffee. He loves a good cup o’ coffee.
