Ron Corzine graduated from Baptist Bible College, Springfield, Mo., in 1973 with a Th.G. Graduate of Theology and Biblical Studies. He served as a youth minister and associate pastor in Louisville, Ky., until pastoring his first church in Combes, Texas, at 27 years old.

Ron travels nationally and internationally, motivating and challenging people to be effective in their call and place of service.

Ron and his wife Anne have been married for 47 years. They have three children and eight grandchildren, and reside in Fort Worth, Texas.
