After graduating seminary I felt called to missions where I served in Mexico, Jamaica then finally settled down in Colombia South

America. I married a beautiful Colombian woman and we had three beautiful daughters. I found myself returning to the USA suffering from a bad case of burnout, and was recommended to GMI for counseling. My life was changed forever.

I knew that I needed to share the message of God’s grace with others. I joined GMI in 2009 and volunteered as a counselor for

two years before coming on staff full time. After a long sabbatical, I returned to GMI as a part time discipleship counselor.
