My passion is to see people come to know Christ and mature believers using their gifts to make a difference for the Kingdom of Christ. In October of 2002, my wife, Lisa, and I, along with a core team of 15 people, felt called by God to begin Rolling Hills Community Church. What an incredible journey as God brings new people to join in the work of making a difference in our city and the world. I am married to an amazing woman and we have three beautiful daughters, Grace, Mabry and Kate.

What an incredible journey God has allowed me to experience with Him! I have served at Rolling Hills since 2005, and I love getting to wear a wide variety of hats in my day job. I value helping people reach their God-designed potential, whether in a small group experience, while serving the broken and those far from God, working on a ministry team, or in a therapy session. I am greatly looking forward to adding a new hat to my collection: doctoral work at Dallas Baptist University while fully living life at home in Thompsons Station with my wife, Gwen, and our awesome sons, Adam and Miles.
