Here's a some recent stories of lives changing in the Tampa Bay area: Shawn | Jason

As an Iron Rep in the Tampa Bay region of Florida, my focus is to introduce men to Jesus and equip them to fully follow Him. I work to establish local relationships and build an environment that encourages men to pursue accountability, balance, and spiritual growth—so they can become the great leaders, godly husbands, and intentional fathers God designed them to be.

I chose to join the team at Men of Iron because of its powerful mission: changing a culture one man at a time. I was also drawn to the team’s passion for honoring God and following the Holy Spirit’s direction. I’ve seen the impact of mentorship in countless men’s lives, including my own. I’ve been blessed to have mentors guide me from a young age, and I understand the importance of passing on what God has given us. This is the legacy I live for! I wholeheartedly believe we are responsible for preparing the men around us—not only to understand the principle of leadership legacy, but to live it out daily. That’s why I chose to be part of this team.

Prior to joining Men of Iron, I served as a firefighter lieutenant for 30 years in the Atlanta, Georgia area. I also earned degrees in Biblical Studies and Theology from Covington Theological Seminary and have been an ordained pastor for 32 years.

My wife, Lori, and I have four children and seven grandchildren, and we currently live in Clearwater Beach, Florida. I enjoy playing golf, fishing, and working out. Lori and I attend Countryside Christian Church in Clearwater.
