By God’s kindness, I was born into a Christian family. At a young age, I heard the good news of Christ’s life, death, and resurrection for the forgiveness of my sins. I was convinced of the depth of my sin and failure, and God drew me to himself as a young man through his grace.
I grew up in the local church. I love the local church. I believe the universal Church, manifested in healthy local churches, is God’s chosen means to redeem and restore. What a privilege it is to give my life and efforts to his church.
My beloved wife, Cassandra, and I got married in December 2016. God has graciously gifted us our beautiful daughter in 2021 and our son in 2026.
We were missionaries in the Middle East from 2017 to 2025. We love eating, reading, and chatting with family and friends. I’m not a “coffee snob,” but I have come to realize that there is a real difference between a bad cup of coffee and a good one. Whether you like “good” or “bad” coffee, I won’t judge. But reach out, I’d love to grab a cup and chat with you.
