I had no idea when I moved into the dorms at Kentucky Christian College (university now) in the fall of 1989 that I would ever be in a ministry position much less a preaching minister!! I also had no idea that just a few weeks from that move in date I would meet the love of my life!! I couldn't be more grateful for both of these things becoming reality! I have now been married to Kari for 27 years and we have been blessed with 2 of the most amazing kids ever, Jordan and Paige.
I was hired as the youth minister here at Old Orchard in the fall of 2005 where I served for 10 years. In 2015 I was called to be the Lead Pastor here and it has been one of the greatest privileges I have ever had. I love this Church and am so humbled at what God has done and is doing in this place.
My desire for this Church is to continue to be a Church where all are truly welcome, a place where anyone can come no matter where they are in the faith and know that they are wanted here. A Church that loves God and His Word and loves people. A Church of people who are committed to praying and serving. A Church that never forgets that we were all once dead in our sin and without Jesus that's where we would have stayed.
I am grateful to be a part of Church and leadership that shares these goals and desires. So that's a little bit about me, now I would love the opportunity to meet you and hear your story and maybe even introduce you to your new Church family!
