Describe yourself in a few words.

I am married and have one daughter. I work full-time as a Network/Database Administrator. I am an Ordained Minister and serve as the Student Pastor at Blue Springs Baptist Church. Here is my heart: "I have a desire to teach students what it means to have a daily encounter with the Living God and that God ignites a passion in us for Him that is not centered around legalism, but His wonderful Grace, realizing that for a Christian life is about knowing Jesus as our Lord and Savior, and making Him known. I have learned through trials of life, as Paul writes in Philippians 4:11 'in whatever state I am to be content.' Because I agree with Paul when he says in Philippians 1:21, 'For to me, to live is Christ and to die is gain.' It is a privilege to serve in the student ministry and see students believe in Christ, being built up in their faith, bonding with other believers, breaking forth in passionate service so their lives will continually bring forth glory to God's name."
