About My Family
My wife, Heather, and I were married in 2004 and have been blessed with one of each our children—our son, Carter, and our daughter, Isla. We love spending time together at home, but our highlights of the year are our trips to Pennsylvania, to camp in upstate New York and to the beaches at Ocean City, Maryland.
About My Church Plant
My life has been a series of God overriding what I thought would happen. I was convinced blind dates never worked (that’s how I met my wife); I said I’d never be a pastor (I’ve now served in that capacity for 10+ years); I never envisioned myself being involved in planting a church (which is now happening). The Lord is sovereign, and there’s no better place to be than walking in His will. As I yielded to Him (once again) by committing to help plant Fireside Church, I’ve never been more humble and thankful to join the work that He is doing in making himself more and more known to those in our community who need the hope that can be found only in Him.
NAMB Church Planting
Millions in North America are in desperate need of hope. Ultimately, the only hope that’s going to last - in this life and the next - is the hope of the gospel. North American missionaries build relationships and share this hope in their communities and beyond.
