Passions:
Passionate about the church being a missionary where we live as well as abroad…passionate about the church focusing on Kingdom living rather than structures, rules, and membership status…passionate about the church being known in a community more by its serving than its programs, preaching, or music…passionate about serving with people on a journey in authentic community and ultimately helping to equip people to serve using their God given abilities and gifts.
