Servant Leaders

Wildwood is blessed to have great men and women of God leading our church family. Our staff are servant leaders who don't just serve, but also equip us to serve others. Our deacons are the lead servants of the church as they work alongside the staff to minister to our church family.

Pastoral Staff

SENIOR PASTOR

Dr. Rick Nichols

Rick became the senior pastor of Wildwood in the summer of 2014. He and his wife, Amy, have been married since 2000 and have two children. He grew up in Pittsburg, TX, and was called to the ministry at 19 after being saved during a revival at Welcome Home Baptist Church.

A devoted family man, Rick enjoys woodworking and restoration projects. He cheers for the Texas Longhorns and Dallas Cowboys, and proudly embraces his inner nerd as a fan of Star Wars, Star Trek, and classic sci-fi.

“Let no one despise your youth; instead, you should be an example to the believers in speech, conduct, love, faith, and purity.”

- 1 TIMOTHY 4:12

ASSOCIATE PASTOR

Jarod Stovall

Jarod and his wife Charlotte came to Wildwood in January 2018. Originally from Mesquite, TX, Jarod earned his Bachelor's in Pastoral Ministry at Wesley College. He views his calling as a lifestyle rather than an occupation.

After college, Jarod volunteered across youth, media, and children's ministries. Since joining Wildwood, he co-founded the Life Group 36:26 with a goal to better understand the Bible as a unified story leading to Jesus.

An educator since 2015, Jarod currently teaches Science at Berry Middle School. He enjoys road trips, being creative, and spending time with his wife and dogs.
