How did I get here? It started many years ago as my family and I were attending church. I wasn't looking for it, but was supernaturally filled with the desire to preach and teach the Bible.  I struggled with this desire for about 5 years before accepting the call to be a pastor.  I have served six different churches since 1992 and found myself at Little Country Church in 2018.
     Along with serving churches, I have also worked as a carpenter.  My wife, Beth, is a Clerical Specialist for Kent State, Tuscarawas Branch.
     As a youngster, I attended the Dover First United Methodist Church.  I am thankful for the gospel seeds that were sown into my life, which came to fruition at the age of 21.
     Beth was raised in the United Church of Christ in Sugarcreek.  She placed her faith and trust in Jesus while in grade school.
     We like to fish, travel and spend time with our family.  We have three grown children and six grandchildren.
