About Fred
  • Education: I have no formal schooling as far as ministry is concerned. I completed two years of electronics training after high school.
  • Experience: I am at my first church. Suwannee Baptist Church called me to preach in 1995 and I have been here since then. It has been a time of learning and growing. I have enjoyed every day of it. This church is the church that every new pastor should have the privilege of being called to.
  • Comment to those looking at my sermons: You are not looking at the best but what you see is sincere. I try to preach in such a way that people have to make a choice for Christ or for the world. May you find something that will help you or spark a thought that will develop into a message to encourage others and lead them to Jesus. That’s what we’re all about!
  • Family: I am married and have three boys, two daughter-in-laws and two grandchildren.
  • Best advice given to me about preaching: Love the People.
  • Books that have had an impact: The Prayer of Jabez;
  • Hobbies: Fishing - I had never salt water fished before coming to Suwannee. Now I love it. It is surprising how many opportunities to witness I find while enjoying a day of fishing with church members and prospects.
  • If I could Preach one more time, I would say...: Today is the day of salvation...we have no promise of tomorrow.
  • What I want on my tombstone: 2 Timothy 4:7

    Those who refuse to step out on faith, (no matter the amount), run the risk of allowing Jesus to pass by for the last time.
