Pastor, husband, dad, and scholar. I love Jesus, family, chicken nachos, college football, and beautiful melodies.
Mission Statement
To lead people to a deeper relationship with God, and to foster personal growth and wholeness in them by modeling the life of Jesus Christ, discipling them through teaching of God’s Word, and by providing them encouragement, counsel, prayer, and authentic relationship.

I've spent 34 years in the ministry, in the pastorate, in evangelism, in para-church ministry or motivational speaking. Degrees include Master of Divinity and Master of Theology degrees from Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary, and a Doctor of Ministry from Master's International School of Divinity.
