He graduated from Francis Marion University with an English degree in 2000 and worked in various jobs that prepared him for pastoral ministry (including middle/high school teacher, college ministry staff, worship music director, and youth ministry director), even working in the business world for a couple years. Stacey completed his Master of Divinity at Reformed Theological Seminary in Charlotte and is currently a Doctor of Ministry candidate at Birmingham Theological Seminary.
