Rev. Larry Davis serves as the Senior Pastor at Second Baptist Church of Amarillo, TX. He brings with him
a deep-rooted passion for Church Ministry and an unwavering commitment to the living Word of God.
With a personal testimony marked by a transformative encounter with Christ during his early twenties,
Pastor Larry’s journey into vocational ministry was set in motion by a clear call from God during a revival
service where Evangelist, Ron Mills was preaching. Over a short period of time, his pastor and church
confirmed the call that was now burning in his heart!
Pastor Larry’s life is intricately woven with a love for the Lord, his family, and their church! His wife, Sissi
Davis, and their three youngest blessings, Alex, Brianna, and Lilli, along with his adult children are the
greatest treasures he has on earth! Their home resonates with the pitter-patter of little feet and the wagging tail of their faithful companion, two-year-old Lab, Thea. Amidst the bustling activities of family life, Rev. Larry Davis finds solace and joy in his passions for woodworking and classic cars. These pursuits not only offer him moments of relaxation but also serve as avenues for him to express his creativity and craftsmanship. Through it all, his commitment to his family and the pursuit of his interests illuminate a life complete with love, purpose, and fulfillment.
To live by Sight is natural,
to live by Fear is unnatural,
And to live by Faith is supernatural!”
— Rev. Larry Davis
