Bring taught from childhood to follow God’s Law, I was well aware of my imperfections and that I was totally unable of earning God’s acceptance. It wasn’t until I started reading the Bible for my own sake that I started encountering God’s grace—that God will accept anyone who pledges their whole selves to Jesus in faith and repentance. God has called me to be a preacher of this good news and lead me to be trained in it at Bethlehem College & Seminary. My wife, Erin and I enjoy nature, reading, and playing with our kiddos.
