What I do at Messiah:
|
Assist people to see the God colors in their lives and in the
world (Matt. 5:14, The Message) by sharing the Gospel and the
presence of Christ in the transitional places in life. My two
principal ministry foci are life crises and persons who are new
disciples or new to Church of the Messiah.

My God story:
|
I’ve always identified with Jacob and his wresting match with God. God has had a tough time with me. I argue and quantify and want to get my arms around God in my own way. God has been very patient but insistent that He is God and I am not. My story is really about the times that God wrestled me to the ground and taught me His plan for my life.
