About My Family
My wife, Kimberly, and I both grew up near Dallas, Texas. We met and eventually fell in love while attending East Texas Baptist University.
Upon earning a Master of Divinity degree from Logsdon Seminary, our family moved back to Dallas to serve the residents of an apartment community where we were first exposed to Muslim peoples, and eventually sensed a shift in vocational call to invest our lives in Muslim families for the purpose of displaying and declaring the "mystery of Christ" (Col. 4:3).
Upon receiving this call from the Lord to step away from church staff ministry , we were blessed to join a like-minded team of people group missionaries to Muslims here in Texas and to gain a further understanding of the Islamic religion and culture.
We welcomed Ian Cole into our family in 2018 and are enjoying life as a family of three!

About My Ministry
Currently, most of our efforts and time are committed to a large pocket of Muslim refugees living in apartment communities in north Dallas. The most recent open door by which the Lord has granted us access to more of these dear Syrian, Iraqi and Afghan families is the distribution of food, diapers, furniture and other household necessities. As we discern those whom the Lord is preparing to hear, we distribute Bibles in their respective heart languages and make plans to study it together.
We would love once again to be an integral part of planting a house church among Muslim background believers here in north Texas and, thus, strive toward that goal.
