Life has not been short on providential moments.  Each one has been marked by loads of grace and truckloads of mercy. One such moment began with a call from my wife exclaiming, “You have got to work at this church!” She had just left Sunday morning worship while I was on military duty.

I now serve as the Minister of Communication Arts leading four teams; Worship Arts, Production Arts, Creative Arts, and Technical Arts.

The past 10 years have been filled with lessons on life, faith, family and leadership. God has proven himself faithful when needs demanded more than my skills could provide. He has continually brought the right people with the right solution at the right time. My greatest satisfaction has been watching God use ordinary people to do extraordinary things.

The past couple of years have been among the most privileged of my life as I’ve served alongside some of the greatest people I have ever met. They are creative, passionate and give their best in all they do. I look forward to sharing the journey God is taking us on as we experience more of His providence and more moments through which He makes himself famous. Together, we are imagining what could be…
