About
Jared has spent more than twenty years in the pastorate and he now serves as Lead Pastor at Tate Springs in the wide sprawl of the DFW metroplex. Along the way, he’s wandered into the classroom as well, teaching philosophy, theology, and apologetics as an adjunct professor. Some of his writing has found its way into places like Radical and Lifeway, and he has a forthcoming book from B&H Academic, Unqualified Apologetics, set to arrive in Spring 2027.
At home he shares life and ministry with his wife, Amanda, and their four children, who together form a small, lively fellowship of books and basketball.
