About

I had been a labeled “Christian” all my life attending Methodist churches with my parents while growing up. I easily stopped going to church when I left for college and enjoyed the sin that temptation brings while in my pursuits for a “higher education”. I met a girl at school and her first requirement of me was that I go to church with her, a Baptist one. We attended a local church for a couple years while we were “dating” and doing our best to abstain from sexual intercourse. While attending that church God showed me my past sins and need for Christ. I realized I never was saved from God’s wrath and needed to repent and trust in His Son. God granted me salvation through Christs’ work on the cross. My then girlfriend and I got engaged about a year later and married. We have almost 24 years of marriage under our belts and 6 wonderful children. God placed in my heart to evangelize the lost as best as I could and He would lead me to do things I never thought I would desire to do, preach the Gospel in the public. I attended Ray Comforts school of Evangelism in 2008 and have been street preaching ever since and actively witnessing and handing out Gospel tracts while having a vendor booth (through my local church). I’ve been a Gideon for 18 years and have been active in public street preaching with Jeremiah Cry Ministries for nearly 14 years. I’m currently an elder in a Reformed Baptist church and assist my speaking elder (pastor) by preaching one Sunday a month. I, along with my wife Ann, teach our children the need for repentance and faith in Jesus, God’s laws, scripture memorization and other important commands that the bible tells us we need to live by. My occupation is a private consulting forester, drone pilot, and real estate agent.
