Leadership

Glenn grew up on a farm in a small town in north Louisiana. He inherited a love of sports from his Dad who was a football coach at the local high school. Glenn played football, basketball, baseball and participated in track and field throughout his high school days. He earned a Bachelor’s degree in Business Administration from the University of Louisiana, Monroe, in 1978. At the beginning of his freshman year of college, he determined that God was calling him to the ministry. His senior year, he became the pastor of Crossroads Baptist Church, just ten miles from his home. After graduating from college, Glenn moved to the Dallas area to pursue his theological training. For three and a half years he commuted the 750 mile round trip from Dallas to his home town of Columbia, LA, to pastor his church each weekend.  In 1982, God led him to become the pastor of Brookhaven Church in Dallas. In 1983, he graduated from the Criswell College in Dallas with a Master’s in Biblical Studies. In 2013, through a series of miraculous events, God relocated the church 20 miles north from Dallas to McKinney.

Glenn lives in Collin County with his wife, Carol. They have been married for over thirty-five years and have two grown children and two grandsons. Glenn is committed to the priorities of putting Jesus first, his wife and family second, and his ministry third. He has a spiritual gift of encouragement and is dedicated to presenting the truth of God’s Word in a way that helps people put the truth into practice in their everyday lives and relationships. He strives to live a life of integrity and to treat every person in a Christlike way. He is passionate about leading the church to be a place where everyone feels welcome and accepted and where those who are looking for hope and change can find a partner to walk with them on that transforming journey.

Chris has served at Brookhaven for many years and has been in almost every role except senior pastor.  Chris thrives on growing in Christ, building and leading teams, improving things, developing strategy, learning, coaching, mentoring, teaching, and pursuing entrepreneurial ventures.
