About My Ministry
Mike grew up in the Rockies and after 20+ years in ministry, he felt the call to return to the region to be a gospel presence and to plant a church. In 2019, they pointed their Uhaul westward and drove 2,000 miles to their new home. Prior to moving, Mike prayed, "Lord, let me put a church where there isn't one." Now, he lives in a community where there is one Baptist church for every 40,460 people.
Mike and Sharon plan to plant Grace Church in Vineyard, Utah. Mike also serves as an academician, evangelist, author, speaker and a chaplain.

SBC Chaplaincy
Chaplaincy is a vital frontline ministry and extension of the local church. Chaplains reach the lost among the thousands of men and women in the U.S. Armed Forces, correctional facilities, healthcare settings, public safety, disaster relief sites, and corporate environments. SBC Chaplains care for the broken, offer hope to the hopeless, and advance the gospel of Jesus Christ in hard-to-reach places.
The qualifications expected of a Southern Baptist applying for endorsement as a chaplain or counselor are established by their institution and the Chaplains Commission, SBC. These qualification requirements vary according to the type of chaplaincy or counseling ministry involved but all are expected to meet a high level of ministerial competence.
