How were you introduced to the Church of Christ?

As a teenager, following my family’s long standing example of faith in God, I became a fifth generation member of the Lord’s church at 37th St. Church of Christ in Omaha, NE.

I have always had a strong desire to be a worker in the Lord’s church, and have always had an affinity for working in the area of finance. This began at 37th St. where I was the youth treasurer, with the responsibility of taking up a weekly collection, counting it and presenting monthly financial position reports to the congregation. That interest grew over time and it led me to pursue a degree in accounting from Southern University in Baton Rouge, LA.  Upon graduating in 1988, I moved to Atlanta and shortly thereafter began worshiping with the saints at West End.

My Favorite Scripture:

My inspiration is the parable of the talents in Matthew 25:14-30. I never want to think of my talents as being buried or underutilized. At the end of the day, I would like for my talents to be maximized to their greatest potential and for God to receive the glory. 

Randy worships with his wife Kesha and they have two children.
