As a result, many of my earliest memories are connected with the church and to worship. Jesus Christ became my Lord and Savior when I was eighteen years old. On a Sunday afternoon, I bowed my head at our dining room table and received Christ. My relationship with God grew and I began sensing His special call upon my life. In 1992, I surrendered to God’s call into vocational ministry. Stephanie joined me in that commitment. We have surrendered our lives to Him. God has worked through me to cultivate and develop others into becoming effective servants for Him. Since surrendering to God, my family has experienced His faithfulness and provision. Our deepest desire is to be useful vessels contributing to a church and ministry team that can use an articulate and dedicated minister who offers a background of proven leadership experience in positions requiring strong written and oral communication skills, planning and organizational abilities, and a talent for instructing and equipping others.
