I was born into the Church of the Nazarene and dedicated my life to Christ at a young age. There was a long stretch starting in high school that I consider to be my prodigal years, but eventually, The Spirit found me and restored me to a right relationship with Him. Throughout my adult life, I've served in diverse ministry roles with various churches, including Worship Leader, Technical Director, and Youth Director. In 2023, my faith journey took a significant step as I began pursuing pastoral ordination through the Church of the Nazarene. On my blog site, muchgrace.com, I write and publish articles about the Bible, culture, and Christian ethics.
Music has always been a great passion of mine and has led me to work in the music industry professionally for decades. I currently own a small music store in Roseville, California called The Strum Shop where you'll find me when not serving at LifePointe Church. I’ve been married to my wife, Sherrin, since 1991. We have two adult children and a granddaughter who is in middle school.
