I am a husband, a father, and a grandfather, but most of all, I am a servant of the Lord Jesus Christ. My wife, Teresa, and I have been married for 36 years and counting. I have been blessed to have been in church ministry since 1994, including pastoring a multiethnic, multigenerational church in the Cincinnati area for over nine years, serving in various roles for LifeWay Christian Resources, but most recently, as the Administrative Director of Leadership Development for the Illinois Baptist State Association. All of the posts, opinions, and ideas are my own and do not necessarily reflect the opinions of my employer.
