I was the youngest of three children.  My father and mother were both serving as deacon and deconess in the small Baptist church where I grew up.  My parents, and brother and sister still remain active in the church.  I was taught to embrace all believers in Jesus Chrsit, and to reach out to others with the love and truth of Jesus Christ.

     I met Becky when I was twenty, and we were married that year.  We felt the call to ministry when I was twenty-two, and left for Indiana Wesleyan University, in Marion Indiana, when I was twenty-five.  I began to minister in various churches, as we trained for full-time ministry. 

     Becky grew up in the Cadillac Wesleyan Church.  Her parents divorced when she was a young teen, and the church, and the North Michigan Wesleyan Camp helped her grow in her faith.  She grew to be a strong believer, and her mom remains active in the church to this day.

      We minister together as a team.  Our team includes our sixteen year old son, Matt.  He has been a joy to our lives, and his faith grows daily.  All of us have a desire to see people growing in their faith, and following Christ for life.
