What is your role at LLCF?
I get to do two of the most exciting things in ministry – help the newer people here at LLCF connect with Jesus and each other and work with the ministry staff as Staff Pastor.  


What is the best part about your role?
The best part of my role is hearing the stories of how God has brought people to the place where he is real in their lives and how He is working at transforming them.  The other thing is watching volunteers and staff hit “home runs” in ministry.  It is so cool to watch people do ministry and God work!

Family
I actually grew up right here in this neck of the woods – Lakewood.  I have a wonderful wife Lori – she has put up with me for nearly 28 years!  I have 5 children,yes count them 5 kids now.  Ashley – 25; Brandt – 22; Lauren – 17; Rachel – 7; Olivia – 3.  Yes there is a wonderful and long story to this.

Fun Stuff
If you were an animal, which one would you be? Why?
I’d be an AArmadillo.  Why, because when we talked about this form a couple of people didn’t know what it was.  Actually they are pretty cool animals – they can get run over by a car and keep going. Which as my wife says is very beneficial at times in this life.

What is your favorite ethnic food?
I love food – I think it would be highly politically incorrect to single out any one ethnicity.  Wouldn’t that be prejudice?


What makes you laugh?
Okay – I have a pretty sick sense of humor – I kind of like twists or things that are opposite of what you would expect.  Bob Elliff makes me laugh hard.

What is your favorite children’s book?
Clyde Monster – you have to read it to understand
