Pastor. Shepherd. Teacher.
About me.
Jesus is my overriding passion and focus. For almost three decades now, since the early days of college, I have been enamored with Him. And because the church is the current body of Jesus on the earth, I live to serve the local church in any way that my unique gifts can help her toward maturity, joy and impact.
