I am a follower of Jesus, a husband to my wife and best friend of 28 years, and a dad to 3 amazing kids.

God really got a hold of my heart at age 19 when I jumped into leading at my home church of Willow Creek.

While serving in their high school ministry, I was immersed in the power of music, worship and the profound impact of the gospel of Jesus.

From that moment on, I knew my life was going to be in the service of the local church.

Although I moved to Nashville and began a professional music career, I continued serving in ministry and my passion for Christ and His church only grew during that time.

In the years that followed, God led me into opportunities to serve on staff in various churches across the country.

After 35 years in full-time ministry, God has brought me into a season where I feel called to utilize my years of experience in a broader capacity to serve His purpose in the local church.

My heart continues to beat for the lost, the hurting and the forgotten who need to experience the life changing salvation, grace and truth of Jesus.
