Amanda and Ben met while attending Baylor University School of Law. Upon graduation, Amanda went on to practice law in Ft. Worth, TX, while Ben attended seminary in Springfield, MO. Both felt called to church planting in New Orleans and came to the city immediately following their wedding. For over a decade now, New Orleans has been their home. Ben, a native of South Louisiana, likes to say that he helped God bring Amanda to Louisiana by introducing her to our great food! Ben and Amanda have two young sons, an elderly pug and a rambunctious cat. Ben loves to cook and Amanda is a Baylor sports fanatic. Both Amanda and Ben are co-vocational, feeling called to serve the Lord through church ministry and in the marketplace.
