Senior Pastor
Pastor Bruce has pastored several churches in the Dallas Ft. Worth Metroplex area for over twenty years. He was called as the Senior Pastor of MSBC on April 12th of 2015.
Pastor Bruce is a Magna Cum Laude graduate of Dallas Baptist University where he earned his Bachelor of Arts degree in Religion & Philosophy. He subsequently earned his Secondary Teacher Certification from the University of Texas at Arlington. He is a Summa Cum Laude graduate of the Criswell College, earning both a Master of Arts and Master of Divinity degrees.

I believe my purpose as a pastor as revealed in Scripture (1 Cor. 10:31; Matt. 22:37-40; Matt. 28:19-20; Eph. 4:7-16) is to glorify God by modeling the reality of His attitudes, actions, and character in my life. Furthermore, I accomplish this by demonstrating biblical, practical, and creative communication in my preaching/teaching ministry and by creating biblical and relational environments where unsaved, imperfect, irreligious, and inquiring people can discover Jesus, grow in relationship to Him, and progressively become completely committed Christ-followers.
