After being called into the ministry at the youth camp before his Senior year, he immediately started preaching every other week at a little country church in Missouri. He then went on to Central Bible College and graduated in 1993 with a Pastoral Ministries degree and minor in Counseling. After graducation and a semester of Seminary, he became youth pastor in Mountain Home, Arkansas. In 1999 he was called on to be youth pastor in St. Charles, Missouri. While in Missouri he also served as the Assistant District Youth Director. As youth pastor, he was there to build upon what the parents should be doing at home, so in 200 he began hosting Parent Retreats. Now as Pastor of Family Ministries, he is excited about continuing these and beginning Marriage Retreats as well. He has a passion for helping families, because so many "things" today try to tear the family unit apart.
