Married to Elizabeth for over 25 years. Two grown daughters and 2 sons, one in college and one in high school. Plus, one grandchild!

Early in my life I pursed the “American Dream” of working hard and moving up in your career, along with buying a house and having a family. At age 30 I realized I was achieving these goals but was empty inside and did not like who I was becoming. After discussing this with my wife we started looking for a church and found one the preached the gospel and taught from the Bible. We surrendered our lives to Christ and began serving and pursing him. Later I would feel the call into ministry. I originally resisted this, but then Elizabeth and I committed to serving God wherever He might call us. So after about 18 years in the corporate world I made the jump into ministry and have been in executive pastor roles for the almost 20 years. I am passionate about discipleship, serving the lost, and seeing the church reach its potential.
