My ministry over the past sixteen years has been marked by my passion for people, the Bible, and worship. Preaching and teaching are some of my top gifts, and they are for equipping and empowering God’s people to experience God’s grace, share it with others, and go forth into the world to bless. I love being with people, and think of the churches I serve as Families of Faith. God has given us joy, and I think we should enjoy what we do to build the Kingdom of God. I look for ways to infuse fun into our ministries and mission work. If we are going to do something, we should have a good time doing it! I’m often described as the quirky, extroverted pastor with the eclectic shoe collection.
