About Chris

Chris has a passionate concern for people who don’t know Jesus Christ and has a  heart for sportsmen and students. He is a full time Evangelist and is currently the Chaplain for the Fellowship of Christian Anglers of the Bassmaster Elite Series.

Chris is a native of South Carolina, and was raised in Summerton, SC near the banks of the Santee Cooper lakes. He is a graduate of Clarendon Hall Academy, Francis Marion College, and attended Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary.  Chris was saved at a young age, and was called into the ministry while attending Francis Marion College. In college Chris discovered he had a gift for communicating the gospel to young people, and has served several Churches and organizations in youth ministry for the last 15 years. While doing Youth ministry God began to allow Chris to speak extensively to a variety of audiences all over the country.  As he began to pray about this he felt God leading him into a full time speaking ministry. In 2004 after much prayer and counsel Wellspoken Ministries was created.

Chris combines a blend of humor, passion, and intensity to convey his concern for people who don’t know Jesus.  His messages are exciting, expositional, and inspirational with a strong evangelistic emphasis. He speaks to a wide range of audiences, challenging them to authentic faith in the person of Jesus Christ. He is available to do Wild Game Banquets, Men’s events, Youth rallies, retreats, seminars, school assemblies, revivals, camps, athletic e
