Our Conference Speaker: Voddie Baucham
Dr. Voddie Baucham, Jr. has been
referred to as an "Evangelist to intellectuals." He is one of the most sought-after preachers of his
generation. His unique blend of
sound biblical exposition, theological content, down-to-earth demeanor and
engaging presence make it clear why this man is considered a modern day
prophet.
However,
that is only part of the story. He
is also a pastor, church planter, author, (The
Ever Loving Truth, Broadman /Holman, 2004; Family Driven Faith, Crossway, 2007) professor, husband, father and
...chef. Born in Los Angeles California in 1969, Voddie was raised by his single,
teen-aged mother after his father went off to pursue a career in professional
football. Voddie was not raised in
a Christian home. In fact, his
mother was a practicing Buddhist.
It was not until his freshman year in college that he actually heard,
understood and responded to the saving message of Jesus Christ.
The
Baucham's are a committed homeschool family. Voddie and Bridget both educate their children. They view education as an essential
aspect of discipleship (Luke 6:40), and have seen firsthand the dangers of
surrendering this crucial ground.
They are both advocates and exponents of home education.
Dr.
Baucham's formal theological training began at Houston Baptist University where
he earned BAs in Christianity and Sociology. From there he went on to earn degrees from Southwestern and
Southeastern Baptist Theological Seminaries, respectively, and has done
additional post-graduate study at the University of Oxford, England. His academic disciplines include
Evangelism/Missions and Apologetics.
He has served as an adjunct professor at a number of colleges and
seminaries, including the College of Biblical Studies (Houston), and Union
University (Jackson, TN).
What
is not as well known, however, is Dr. Baucham's commitment to the local
church. Far from a roving
itinerant, he has served on numerous church staffs over the past 17 years. In fact, he has spent 16 of the last 17
years laboring in the local church.
He has spent 9 years as a Pastor of Missions, 4 years as a Teaching
Pastor, and currently serves as Pastor of Preaching at Grace Family Baptist
Church in Spring, TX where he resides with his wife and 6 children.
