About My Family

I’ve been joyfully married to my wife, Lissette, for almost 20 years. Together, we have five wonderful children, one of whom has Down syndrome. We homeschool our children, and our home is full of life—we love building LEGOs, singing and dancing together. Lissette holds a Bachelor of Arts in Business Management but has devoted herself to raising and educating our children.

I hold dual master’s degrees from Liberty University and have served as a pastor for eight years and a counselor for nearly 15 years. I am founder of Biblical Solutions for Life, which is a biblical counseling ministry. Through this ministry, I have the privilege of walking alongside hurting people, offering hope through the truth of God’s Word. I’ve also written several books to encourage and equip others in their healing journeys.

About My Church Plant

The mission of this ministry is to share the living hope of the gospel through disciple-making and church planting. The vision is to see lost and hurting people embrace the living hope of the gospel, and for communities of healthy disciples to love and honor God and others and to live responsive to the needs of others.

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.

Pray

Pray for open doors to connect with the lost and hurting in our community. Pray for the development of a team of people who desire to see the hurting comforted.
