Who Am I?

I am a church pastor and planter living in Denver with my wife, Rebecca, our three children, and one grandson.  I worked in the broadcast industry for 15 years prior to entering full-time ministry.  I’m originally from Collinsville, Illinois and a 1984 graduate of Collinsville High School.  My wife also graduated from CHS in 1986 and is from Caseyville, Illinois.

At present, I work for Free Will Baptist Home Missions as a church planter and am working to establish a new church in the North Denver suburbs.  I love what I’m doing and I love working with people.  I also write regularly for this blog and have been published in magazines like “One”, “Clear Living”, and “Together With God”. I have a Professional Arts Degree in Broadcasting from the Broadcast Center in St. Louis, Missouri, a Bachelor of Science degree in Organizational Management with an emphasis on Christian Leadership from Colorado Christian University in Lakewood, Colorado , and am presently pursuing a Master of Arts degree in Religion with a Christian Leadership emphasis from Liberty University in Lynchburg, Virginia.

My hobbies include reading, writing, and tech toys!  I love spending time with my family, my church family, and my dog, Buddy.  I am an avid baseball fan and follow the St. Louis Cardinals and now, the Colorado Rockies too.  I love the sport of hockey and my son has picked up that passion..Look for me in the local coffee shops when I’m studying! I’d love to visit with you.
