Growing up in Oregon, I was raised with two brothers in a small community outside of Salem. My family was actively involved at Stayton Christian Church where my dad is currently an elder. After graduating from high school, I earned a wrestling scholarship to Southwestern CC where I received my Associate’s Degree.
Before entering full-time ministry, I worked several jobs including construction and heavy equipment operation. At the time, I was making some very poor decisions and fell away from my faith. I wasn’t sure why I believed what I believed anymore. This led me to attend CCCB in Moberly, Missouri. I was not originally planning to go into full-time ministry but longed for a better understanding of the Bible and who Jesus is.
There I met my incredible and beautiful wife, Becky. At school, I realized a passion for sharing the gospel with the everyday person. Nine months after we married, I became the Lead Minister at Milan Christian Church. While in Milan, we gave birth to our son Winston and fostered 11 children. Through fostering, we adopted three biological brothers. So, we are blessed to boast 7 sons ranging from young adult to diapers. 

We are so excited and blessed to be a part of “The County” and are prayerfully looking to the future to see how God unfolds His plan before us.
