Leadership

Pastor Bo was born and raised in Valdosta, GA, and later moved to the Atlanta area.  After graduating from Valdosta State University in 2003 with a degree in graphic design he felt the Lord’s call to full-time ministry.
While enrolled as a student at Southern Baptist Theological Seminary, he met his wife, Yvonne. Bo received a call to First Baptist Church of McMinnville, TN as the associate pastor of students in 2008 and served there for nearly ten years.  During Bo’s time of ministry at FBC McMinnville, he and Yvonne welcomed 3 awesome boys. Bo completed his Master’s of Divinity and graduated from Southern Seminary in December of 2017.

Bo accepted the call as Senior Pastor of Gum Springs Baptist Church in February 2018 after a unanimous congregational vote.

Bo has a real heart for people. While education and teaching are very important, his desire as a pastor is to love people and shepherd the flock. He believes relationships are the key to building a strong fellowship of believers.
