I grew up in Lebanon, Oregon and accepted Christ at a young age, attended a Christian school for many years, graduated from a public high school and remained active in the church while growing in my personal relationship with Jesus.  After high school, I moved to California, attended a performing arts academy, joined the screen actors guild, and appeared in several movie and tv productions as a background actor. My faith grew into a deep loving and trusting relationship with Christ during this time.  My life verse; Proverbs 3:5-6, "Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding, but in all your ways acknowledge Him and He will direct your path" became alive for me during those early years and has led me to this moment in time. I followed God's lead from California to Jacksonville, Florida where I met my wife, and God called us into ministry. We have been married for 29 years and in ministry for over 28 in Florida, Illinois, and Oregon. I completed my ministerial studies and was ordained in 2013.  We have four children, Jaron, Evan, Ethan and Lydia. We are called to serve as a team and want to live a great story by remaining in the center of God’s will. My mission is to lead, develop, and serve with teams of people who are using their gifts, talents, and passions for the Kingdom!
