About My Family
I have been married to my wife, Laura, since 1997. We have two grown children: our son, Dakota, and his wife, Teagan, and our daughter, Lexi.
Laura and I have served in ministry since 1998, beginning in Kilgore, Texas. We raised our two children in a strong Christian home, following biblical values as we guided and raised them. Laura has faithfully served alongside me throughout our years of ministry and has been an instrumental part of women’s ministry.
Our son, Dakota, is following in my footsteps as he pursues a calling to become a pastor. Our daughter, Lexi, is also very involved in ministry and serves as a worship leader for conferences.
Laura and I have a deep passion for reaching Deaf people for Christ. Our family desires to serve Christ faithfully and fully support the ministry God has entrusted to us as we follow His call.

About My Church Plant
Deaf Church Indy (DCI) is a new church plant in Central Indiana, established in 2026. Our mission is to glorify God by making disciples through visual language, biblical truth, and the gospel.
We desire to reach Deaf people locally, throughout Indiana, across the nation, and internationally, following Jesus’ command in Acts 1:8. DCI’s vision is to reach Deaf people, develop disciples, train leaders, and equip and send others to make disciples in communities worldwide.
Deaf people represent one of the largest unreached people groups in the world, with an estimated 83 million Deaf people who have limited or no access to the gospel. Many Deaf people live and die without seeing or understanding the gospel. We desire to see Deaf people transformed by the gospel, equipped as disciples, and empowered to reach others for Christ.

NAMB Church Planting
Millions living in North America have not been reached with the gospel. But a new church makes change possible in an unreached neighborhood.
Send Network church planters immerse themselves in a community, learning the rhythms and culture as they establish relationships with the lost. A church plant grows out of the evangelism efforts of the planter and his core team.
