"From August 2023 to July 2024, I had the joy of serving in the residency program at Biltmore Church —a place that shaped me long before it ever employed me. Biltmore Church was where I gave my life to the Lord at 9 years old, and it was such a sweet gift from God to come back and serve alongside the very people who were so formative in my calling.”
