What you like best about working at FCC
I love seeing how the Grace of God brings life change to the people at FCC.

Ministry/Professional background
First Christian has been my only ministry position. I have been here 15 years. I have two Master’s Degrees and received my Master of Divinity in the Summer of 2007.

Who led you to Christ
My Dad sold a guy a house and he coached a basketball team at a church. He invited me to play on their team but I had to come to one service a week. Even though I don’t remember his name that coach and that invitation changed my life.

Favorite Bible verse
”For it is by grace you have been saved, through faith—and this not from yourselves, it is the gift of God…” Ephesians 2:8

Favorite book
Gene Edwards has written two books that have played a huge role in my spiritual development. One is called A Tale of Three Kings and the other is called Exquisite Agony.  

Favorite music, song or artist
I am a total AM radio talk show fanatic. Give my good old 700 WLW any day.

Family
I have been married to my beautiful wife, Laura, for 14 years. We have two incredible daughters: Emma, who is 7 and loves gymnastics and Krista, who is 5 and loves to play dress up.

Favorite sport, sport team or boardgame
I am a diehard Ohio State Fan…go Bucks!! I love the Reds and the Bengals and when basketball season rolls around I always bleed Kentucky Blue.

Tell us something about you we never would have guessed
When I have the time, I love to cook at home. If I could only watch one channel it would be the food network. Move over Emeril, I’m gonna kick it up a notch… BAM!!
