Wisdom/bit of advice/quote:
You don't have to know a lot of things in order to make a huge difference for the Lord. But you do need to know a few things that are great and be willing to live for them and die for them. The people who make a difference in the world are not people who have mastered a lot of things, they are people who have been mastered by a very few things that are very, very great.  -John Piper

Married to Heather

Wisdom/bit of advice/quote:“And he died for all, that those who live should no longer live for themselves but for him who died for them and was raised again.”
    -II Corinthians 5:15 NIV

Marital Status:
Married to Kate
(We met at Praxis.)

Education:
B.A. Business Administration: Point Loma Nazarene University
M.B.A. University of Phoenix

Hope and Vision for Praxis:
To be a church that will reach the community with love and inspire a new type of life, a life committed to Christ and glorifying God.


How you got involved with Praxis:  
After looking around for a church to be committed to, Praxis was planted and I found a home.  It also didn’t hurt that I had been friends with Justin for 13 years and roomed with him in college. When you share soap with a man, you are obligated to join his church.

A few of my favorite things: Nachos, Goodwill t-shirts, basketball, my dogs

Final Word:
Let’s live our lives in a way that we will know, rather than assume God’s promises are true.
