Charles Pratt grew up in a rural Tennessee farm family that taught him the values of working hard, while treating all people with respect. Honesty and integrity were the standard that he adopted from his parents. He came to a saving knowledge of Jesus Christ just before entering college. He accepted the great challenge as the first person in his family to attend college by receiving a high school scholarship.His life has been constantly driven with a passion to make a difference in the world and his family. Charles's first full-time job after college was a high school teacher and boys basketball coach. He met the love of his life, Linda at a Gospel Crusade when the audience was asked to shake hands with those around them. Charles shook Linda's hand and did not want to let go. They married about 2 years later and celebrated 50 years of marriage in 2019. While serving as a high school teacher, Charles began to venture into the business world on a part-time basis. Later he went full time into business in Paris, Tennessee, where he helped start 2 very successful businesses within a short period of time. At a young age, Charles became a very excited Bible teacher for a Young Couples class in his church, while leading many to faith in Jesus.
