Meet our Team

Bryan Wilson

President/CFO

God called me to start this Teen Challenge because our family had a long line of alcoholics until God delivered my father & broke the generational curse on our family. We are now three generations of ministers. One life changed can transform the trajectory of a whole family of generations, saving children from abuse, giving sons back to mothers, husbands back to wives, & fathers back to children. There is also the reality that our church had sent 200 men to other TCs around the country but some could not leave the state because of legal issues. So we could not help them & God said, “Do something about it.” The the miracles began.

Joshua Cook

Program Director

My name is Joshua Cook, I’m 38 years old. I lived in darkness for 22 years of my life. I came to Teen Challenge August 17, 2017 & was set free from the bondage of addiction & alcoholism. It tells us in John 8:12 “I am the light of the world. Whoever follows me will never walk in darkness, but will have the light of Life.” And today I have that light.

Wesley Barnett

Intake Coordinator

My name is Wesley Barnett, I am 28 years old. I was in active addiction for 8 years of my life. God delivered me from my addiction and brought me to Mercy House Adult and Teen Challenge on November 12, 2020. I also now have a beautiful wife and two amazing step sons that I get to raise up in the Lord. My life is forever changed!

Sharon Pointer

Executive Assistant

Addiction has followed me for years. As I grew up, my family was dysfunctional because of Drugs/Alcohol/Relationships. Those are the things I craved in my life. I was receiving counseling with Pastor Bryan Wilson and that is what brought me to MHATC. My life has been forever changed through this ministry

Jessica Bratton

 Financial Administrator

My association with MHATC began through my husband, who graduated from the program in 2013 and remained employed with MHATC until 2018. I have always aspired to work within a ministry environment. After transitioning from an 11-year career as a Paralegal in 2022, a series of events led me to join Mercy House part-time in January 2023. Currently, I serve as the full-time Human Resources and Financial Administrator. This role has allowed me to reconnect with what feels like my second home. Since 2012, this ministry has significantly impacted my family, and I am honored to contribute to a remarkable team dedicated to restoring families by rehabilitating the men who participate in our program.

Joshua Holliday

Development Director

I grew up never knowing my father, which left a deep void in my life. That emptiness shaped how I viewed myself and the world, leading me to seek acceptance and fulfillment in all the wrong places. As a young adult I began losing everything—my family, my purpose, and my hope. But when I felt there was no way out, no hope, God showed up and completely transformed my life. My journey has been marked by pain and struggle. My son was pulled into the deep darkness of addiction at an early age, which devastated our family. I know firsthand the heartbreak of
watching someone you love suffer under the grip of substance abuse. But through it all, God remained faithful.
I’ve been married for 27 years and have three grown sons. Despite the challenges we faced, God restored our family and gave us a renewed purpose. Today, I am helping men and their families find freedom from addiction. I believe one life transformed can change the trajectory of an entire
family, breaking generational cycles of pain and addiction.  Just as God rescued my family, I am committed to being part of that same miracle for others—restoring children to parents, husbands to wives, and fathers to their children. Every life transformed is a testimony to God’s grace and the power of hope.
