Disciple-Making Strategist

What would you like participants to know about your family?

I married my high school sweetheart. We have been married 17 years and have 3 kids who are 16, 12, and 7.

What are your hobbies? What is a fun fact you would like the participants to know about you?

I love coffee. I am a podcast junkie. I like to play basketball, disc golf, and take walks. Anytime I can get in the Sauna it is a good day. I think oatmeal is one of the most underrated and best foods there is....

What do you hope participants will take away from your session(s)?

My hope is that participants will come away excited to be apprenticing under Jesus and excited to start helping others apprentice under Jesus in their communities.

What would you like to share with participants about how you connect with the Lord, as an encouragement to them?

Wow.... in the past couple years I've really found that journaling really helps me connect to the Lord. I feel like though if I have time to myself and a cup of coffee, you could find me journaling, reading scripture, praying, doing listening prayer, it depends on where my energy is for that day and what is going on in my life. Also I feel like I really connect to the Lord through relationships. When I get to sit with friends or do coaching there are sacred moments of connection.
