Paul graduated from Oklahoma Baptist University (B.S.) in 1961, with a major in Math, and a minor in Music, and from Texas Tech University (M.S.) in 1965, with additional graduate study in computers at Southern Methodist University. He was Director of the Computer Center at Connors State College for 29 years, before his retirement in 2004.

These groups sing regularly in the services at FBC.
