ABOUT ME

I have been married to the most beautiful woman in the world for over 35 years.  We have two

adult children; one of which is married to a wonderful young lady.

I grew up attending church.  I graduated from high school in 1971 and entered into the Coast Guard.  While in the Coast Guard I had my rebellious time period and experienced many of the sinful attractions of the world.

In January of 1974 I was transferred to the Coast Guard Cutter Midgett.  There, I met Joe White. He was a Boatswains Mate on the ship, but he was a wonderful Christian who not only talked the talk of a Christian, he walked the walk.  His example changed my life.  When we were out at sea, he would hold Bible Studies and Worship Services.  He was transferred shortly after I arrived on the ship, But I never forgot him and his example.  I rededIcated my life to Jesus Christ in April of 1974 and began to hold Bible Studies and Worship Services on the ship, just like he did.

I left the Coast Guard in 1976 to get my education and become a Navy Chaplain. I was ordained in 1981. I received my Master of Divinity degree with a minor in psychology in 1988.  I then spent three years as a Navy Chaplain.  The Lord then called me out of the military and into the civilian world.

Since my rededication in 1974, I have served many congregations in the roll of a Pastor or Teacher.  The Lord has opened my eyes to the fact that all of my sermons and all the lessons I teach have one main focus, i.e., How To Grow as a Christian.

I have seen many Christians grow as they apply the lessons I teach.  I want to help you grow, too.  May God richly Bless you as you strive to grow into the Christian Servant you and He desire.

LOVE GOD
