So, I'm the nerd of the group. I love education and teaching and organizing things. I have obtained a PhD in Christian Education and enjoying teaching classes on the side. I enjoy editing Chad's books, teaching Life Groups (or any groups), and coordinating the work of the Family Discipleship Team. I am energized by working on a collaborative team, which is a good thing at Colonial Heights!
I married my best friend, Julie, in March of 1996. She and I have been blessed with three amazing kids who are now teaching us how to parent and love unconditionally through the teenage (and college) years. Julie and I fell in love with Colonial Heights when we were students at Mississippi College back in the mid-90s. Then, after serving in Texas and Alabama, God called us back here to Colonial Heights in December 2003. We have been blessed to serve here alongside friends and family who have taught us, encouraged us, and loved us unconditionally.
