Shaq and his family live in Chattanooga, TN. Shaq serves as the president of Orphan No More Foundation and as one of the pastors at Red Bank Baptist Church. Shaq is passionate about being a part of life change in the church in the church and has dedicated his life to helping kids without parents become orphans no more.

Shaq was born in south Georgia where he was a foster kid for the first ten years of his life. At 17 years old, he surrendered his life to Jesus at a youth summer camp, and just one day later, he heard his call to ministry.

In addition to preaching at church retreats and summer camps, Shaq hosts a devotional podcast titled Jesus, instead of me.
