I stand to welcome Dr. Kevin Shrum to the Chamber of the U.S. House of Representatives and to thank him for opening our session today with a heartfelt prayer. Dr. Shrum is a devout Christian and an inspiring pastor. His church is in Nashville, Tennessee. Inglewood Baptist Church is one of the fastest growing Southern Baptist churches in the Fifth Congressional District. Dr. Shrum graduated with a bachelor of arts from Missouri Baptist College in 1984, received his master's of divinity in 1987 and earned his doctor of ministry in 1991 from the Southern Baptist Theological Seminary. Dr. Shrum comes from a rich heritage of spiritual leaders. My administrative assistant Dottie Moore has been an active member of his church for many years. It is a great honor to have him with us today. God bless you.
