Brent was born into the home of an evangelist and started traveling with his family when he was six weeks old. He traveled with his family in meetings 10 months out of the year until he went to college. Brent was saved at the age of eight and was baptized a short time later. At the age of fourteen the Lord called him to preach and Brent surrendered to serve Him in whatever capacity He should choose. Two years later, while reading his Bible, the Lord made it clear that He wanted Brent to serve Him as an evangelist.

After college and graduate school, through the counsel of godly men, the Lord directed Brent’s heart to serve in a local church so that he could mature, gain wisdom, learn the heart of a pastor, and be better prepared to serve the pastor and the local church in the future ministry of evangelism. Brent served as a Youth Pastor for three years and during that time the Lord brought his wife, Becky, into his life. The Lord then led them to another ministry for five wonderful years of ministry and in 2003 entered into the ministry of evangelism.
