I am a native Kentuckian, born and raised in a little town more famous for it’s whiskey production than anything else. I moved my family to Surprise, AZ in September of 2009 with the intention of starting a church plant. Along the way I’ve managed to publish a book, Shouting at God.
I have a wife of 11 years and counting, Alissa – we have 2 great and beautiful daughters, Katie and Kenzie. We love all things outdoors, and pretty much anything that involves cooking or having people over.
I have been in ministry full-time in one capacity or another since January of 2000. Before then I held jobs in the garment industry (sales, field technical support, production planning) and before that…well, let’s just say I was trying to figure out what my life was supposed to look like. I knew early on that I was supposed to be in ministry, but had so many reservations about church and what that meant that I ran from that calling. I hit bottom, and the Lord graciously gave me a 2nd chance. I love being a pastor, and I strive to keep my heart and mind focused on what really matters in the church world – God’s glory, and people.
