About My Family
I moved to Ohio from the Upper Peninsula of Michigan, where I developed my love for paddle boarding, fishing and the outdoors. I grew up farming and working in my dad’s church with my brother and sisters, who are also in ministry.
My wife, Samantha, and I have a daughter, Isla, and two English bulldogs , Cromwell and Pippa.

About My Church Plant
I planted Church in the Wild in fall 2018. Before planting, I was a speaker in the Columbus area, teaching at different Bible studies, groups and churches several times a week. My messages are creative, yet thought provoking as I attempt to make the Bible clear to believers and non-believers alike.
I say this about the vision of our church: “Church in the Wild is a multicultural church existing to go anywhere to tell everyone about the love of God. We value belonging and want everyone to feel welcome no matter their age or background. We want you to come as you are because we believe that you will never leave like you came.”

NAMB Church Planting
Demonstrated Christian character is essential for missionaries and chaplains to gain credibility and build community. A missionary is person who, in response to God’s call and gifting, leaves his or her comfort zone and crosses cultural, geographic or other barriers to proclaim the gospel and live out a Christian witness in obedience to the Great Commission. The North American Mission Board supports missionaries serving across the United States, Canada and their territories. Churches are the missionary incubators and sending centers for missionaries through the Southern Baptist Convention. Missionaries serve in a variety of settings and face tremendous challenges. But the rewards are tremendous and life-changing. Missionaries have the privilege to represent their church and their Father in sharing the gospel as the primary focus of their activity. If you are interested in pursuing next steps as a potential missionary or chaplain from your church, explore the possibilities at “Send me.”
