Martin grew up in multiple states, as his father worked in the United States Air Force. After he was saved at the age of 5, he battled all through his teenage years as he knew that the Lord was calling him into full-time Christian service. After surrendering to His will at Teen Camp, Martin followed the Lord's calling and went to The Crown College in Powell TN, where he met and married Emilee (Comer) Costilla. After graduating Crown College, Martin and Emilee began serving as Assistant/Youth Pastor at Harvest Baptist on December 31, 2023.
