About Me

Welcome!  My name is Andy Manning.  I am the founder and lead pastor of Church Acadiana, a Southern Baptist Church that we started in June 2005.

I am a graduate of the University of Louisiana at Lafayette (B.S. in Business Administration, 2002), and Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary (MDiv in Biblical Languages, 2005).

My wife, Lydia, and I were married in 2002.  We have six children, whom Lydia homeschools.

I am passionate about Jesus Christ and the difference He has made in my life, and I want everyone I meet to experience His love and power.

On this blog you will find my articles, sermons, commentary (sermon research), and even Greek and Hebrew word studies.
