Larry grew up in Grand Prairie, Texas, a suburb of the city of Dallas located in the heart of Dallas and Fort Worth. After graduating from Grand Prairie High School, Larry earned a Bachelor of Science degree from Dallas Baptist University, and a Master of Education degree from the University of North Texas in Denton. Larry has taught for Cleburne I.S.D., Arlington High School, Grand Prairie High School, Irving High School, Prince Career Institute, Shady Grove Christian Academy, North Lake College and El Centro College of the Dallas County Community College District. Larry is certified to teach freshman level Bible courses through the Seminary Extension Program of the National Southern Baptist Convention, serving all six of their accredited seminaries in the USA, including Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Fort Worth, Texas.

Larry became a specialist in remedial education serving native English speakers & ESL students, while initiating and coordinating academic/vocational-technical training partnerships between public high schools, colleges and local businesses. More recently, he has spearheaded an effort to get a State of Texas approved Bible elective taught in the Dallas/Fort Worth Texas Public High Schools. In 2006, Larry successfully initiated a partnership between South Grand Prairie High School and Mountain View Community College of the Dallas County Community College District to offer the first dual credit (college and high school) Bible elective in the country!

As a highly successful corporate trainer, public high school teacher and college instructor, Larry has freely shared his lessons-learned in various publications for the last 25 years. While creating and writing an academic "Ask the Bible Column" for a weekly national publication, Larry has written/produced training materials/manuals for churches, businesses, newspapers, public schools, colleges and universities, while managing budgets and motivating students. UMR Communications, the SBTEXAN, the Dallas Morning News and the Star Telegram have published Larry’s insightful, candid and sometimes poignant articles. One of Larry’s favorite sayings is, “If education isn’t practical, then it’s practically no good.”
