I’ve been in full-time ministry for over 30 years, having worked in various pastoral roles at large churches in Missouri, Florida, Virginia, and Illinois.  People describe me as real, down to earth, passionate, practical, and encouraging.  I love to lead, teach, and pour into people spiritually.  I’m humbled that God has used my life and ministry over the course of many years to impact students and adults alike.  I’ve been married to my beautiful wife Michele since 1998 and we have three college age/young adult children.  I enjoy spending time with my family, playing with our dog Roxie, watching sports, and going to classic rock concerts.

I have a huge heart for First Responders and athletes because they want to go the extra mile in life.  I count it a privilege to walk alongside those who want to move towards a more fulfilling and impactful life.  That desire comes from a place of gratitude as I have been blessed to be around and mentored by some amazing people over the years that have molded and shaped my life forever. I'm currently the chaplain for police and fire departments all over the St. Louis region. I also get the opportunity to be the team chaplain for the St. Louis Battlehawks football team. Because of my work with the Battlehawks, and my heart for First Responders, I felt God leading me to move in the direction of starting a ministry that’s devoted to walking with people who want to go the extra mile! 

If you're a First Responder, athlete, or someone needing spiritual direction and a listening ear, I'd be honored to walk with you.
