Where I Grew Up and What I Did As A Kid
For the most part, I grew up in Saint Peters, Missouri. As a kid, I played soccer and also loved to go skiing. I sensed a calling into pastoral ministry when I was a teenager, so I went to college at Liberty University in Virginia and graduated in 2007 with a degree in Religion--Youth Ministry. Shortly afterwards, I met the pastors of The Journey and then came to Saint Louis to begin an internship.

Favorite Reads and Films
Book: The Cost of Discipleship, by Dietrich Bonhoeffer

It's my hope that we might influence our culture and transform lives, all for the sake of Jesus Christ.
