Calling is something that is important for both Maggie and I. We share in ministry together, and together we minister well. Our commitment to the gospel is matched only by our commitment to sharing that wth others - both within and outside the church. We both have a strong desire to mentor and shepherd men and women in their 20's and 30's - from college students and professionals, to young marrieds and families. We are both gifted and experienced in leading discipleship and community small groups, personal counseling, and coaching, as well as teaching and communicating in forum and large group settings. Hospitality is a regular practice in our home and we love to live life on life with others as much as possible.
