Brian is a full-time doctoral student at New Orleans Baptist Theological seminary, pursuing a PhD in Theology/Church History. Brian holds a Masters of Divinity in Christian Thought and a Master of Arts in Christian Education from NOBTS, as well as a Bachelor of Arts degree in Radio, TV, and Film from the University of Southern Mississippi.
Brian served in student ministry for over a decade and has been leading worship for over twenty years, serving churches in Mississippi, Louisiana, Alabama, and California. While serving as a Student Pastor, Brian fell in love with communicating God's word, which led to accepting a role as a head pastor. In March of 2020, our church suddenly found ourselves without a pastor just as the COVID-19 pandemic had begun. In this time of perceived need, Brian stepped up to the preaching role while the church considered searching for a pastor. In short time, a decision was made to ask Brian to be the pastor of our church. Brian was officially hired as the pastor of our church on June 14, 2020, after having served in the church as the worship leader and student pastor since April of 2018. Brian is joyfully married to his wife, Laura, and they have two daughters. The Dedmons live in Belle Chasse with their beloved dog, Lulu. Brian's philosophy of ministry is "Discovering who we are in Christ together." He believes that the church serves as a support for those who are pursuing a personal relationship with Christ, providing encouragement for spiritual growth that starts at home and is strengthened by the church. |
