He was privileged to pastor the following churches, Rock Creek Baptist Church in Auburn, California, First Baptist Church in Carrizozo, New Mexico, First Baptist Church in Hermitage, Missouri, Roaring River Baptist Church in Eagle Rock, Missouri, (This was his home church where he attended growing up and he told the Lord that he would never pastor in his home church but he did.), Myrtle Avenue Baptist Church in Eureka, California, Olive Point in Urbana, Missouri, First Baptist Church in Crocker, Missouri, Rock Springs Baptist Church in Eureka Springs, Arkansas, where his grandpa Carter pastured and preached at the turn of the century, and was assistant Pastor at Roaring River Baptist Church in Eagle Rock, Missouri.
