About My Family
As a young adult, God used the biblical teaching and relationships built through Christian Challenge to bring me to the point of realizing my need for total surrender to Jesus. As newlyweds my wife, Candace, and I answered a call to youth ministry in Del Norte, Colo.
After our former director moved, there was a year where Adams State University (ASU) did not have an on-campus ministry. We prayed about stepping into a college ministry role during that year, and after receiving multiple confirmations, Candace and I re-established a Christian Challenge ministry at ASU.
Since then our vision and heart for college ministry has grown immensely. I now serve as the full-time director of Challenge at ASU.
My wife and I have three amazing children: Elijah, Luke and Hannah. We love the outdoors, including camping, hiking and snowboarding.

About My Ministry
Our ministry exists to bring the life-changing love and gospel of Jesus Christ to the students of ASU and to raise up and equip disciples to live a Christ-centered life, taking the gospel with them to the ends of the earth. We reach out to students through on-campus events, free meals, fun activities and trips and weekly groups. Through discipleship, students learn the value of personal and consistent Scripture reading and prayer, the need for fellowship and the importance of sharing their faith.
We want our students to make the most of their time in college but also to see the role they have in the church once they move on. Our ministry depends on individuals and churches who see the value of reaching college students for Christ and are willing to lend their financial support and prayers to keep us in the fight.
