Raised on a farm in Logan County, KY, Troy came to faith in Christ at the age of 12, and became involved in missions at the age of 13. Although he went on to major in music at Austin Peay State University, God was simultaneously using the Baptist Student Union to call him to fulltime Christian ministry. A two-time graduate of the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary (M.Div. in Missions, Evangelism, and Church Growth, 2000 and Ph.D. in Christian Preaching, 2009), he served local churches for 25 years, including nearly 19 years in the pastorate, serving churches in Tennessee, Kentucky, and North Carolina. In 2016 he began serving as a bi-vocational Associational Mission Strategist in North Carolina and became the full-time AMS for Holston Baptist Association in November of 2020. He and his wife Amy have been married for 21 years and have 8 children, 6 girls and 2 boys.

Born and raised in Kingsport, Pam was saved at the age of 8 during a revival at her small community church. After graduating from East Tennessee State University with degrees in microbiology and dental hygiene she was married to Stephen, and they were blessed with two now-grown sons. Pam feels blessed to serve God at HBA and, for many reasons, considers herself living proof of Ephesians 3:20-21.

“Now unto him that is able to do exceeding abundantly above all that we ask or think, according to the power that worketh in us, Unto him be glory in the church by Christ Jesus throughout all ages, world without end. Amen.” (Ephesians 3:20-21)
