While a student, Marcus met his wonderful wife Stacey, a singer, voice teacher, and choir director. They married in 2000, lived in Searcy for a year, then moved to Texas. He and his family returned to Searcy in 2013 after spending twelve years with another wonderful church family having served almost nine of those years as their youth minister.
Marcus has also been working as a professional actor for over 12 years. He has performed in live venues and been invloved in independent film, music video, and national television shows. Marcus has a passion for the use of story in live performance and film for powerful communication. He has an increasing portfolio of written and produced work and has been featured at Winterfest, Uplift, Soul Link and other events and church retreats.
Marcus is a big believer in CORE Groups and is thrilled to partner with our team of volunteers in working with the youth and their families at Downtown.
