Trent Dean
Trent was baptized into Jesus Christ in June of 2011. He grew up around a denominational church body, but did not know the LORD. After meeting his now wife in night school at the University of North Alabama, his desire to serve the LORD faithfully drew him into her family’s devotion to the LORD. After attending Bible classes and Sunday morning worship services at the Baldwin congregation Trent was excited to be around people that studied the Bible seriously. The Christians at Baldwin taught the word of God in a manner that allowed Trent to gain understanding and wisdom from the LORD. Trent put away his former religious practices and began meeting regularly with the Christians at Baldwin. Through the Wednesday night Bible classes, Sunday morning worship services and Bible classes, along with his personal Bible studies He came to know the LORD and understood what he needed to do to obey the gospel of Jesus and become a child of God. After having been baptized into Jesus, Trent continued to devote himself to growing in the grace and knowledge of his Lord and Savior Jesus Christ and looking for ways to serve Him and bear fruit for His kingdom. Teaching and eventually preaching became avenues for Trent to do so and he has continued in these works since that time.
Trent and his wife Caley have three boys, Camden, Benjamin, and Jackson. They are an active family that values spending time together and maintaining values and priorities that are in line with serving Jesus Christ as well as consciously resisting the influence of our modern American culture. Trent is a tenth grade English teacher and a cross country / track and field coach at Cullman High School. Caley used to teach English at Cullman Middle School and now focuses on managing the home as well as teaching and training their three boys daily. Camden and Benjamin attend the Primary School in the Cullman City School system and Jackson, 2 years old, stays with Caley.
