A father, a husband, a pastor, an author, a friend. Fatherhood has shaped my entire life. It was coming awake to God’s love for me as Father that transformed me. I am a dad of five amazing kids, a foster dad who gets the joy of seeing Jesus restore broken families, and a spiritual father to a number of precious sons and daughters in the Kingdom of God. Fatherhood is my message and my ministry.

 

I have been married to my high school sweetheart and the love of my life, Jill, since 2002. She radiates Jesus and is my true Rock and partner in this journey we get to share together. She is the most beautiful person I know and makes me laugh more than anyone on the planet.

​

I’ve had the joy of leading within the local church since 1998 and as the Lead Pastor of the most amazing spiritual family, Overflow Church in Valrico, FL since 2019.

 

I have written a few books with several more on the way and love to offer resources that bring perspective, passion, and perseverance so you live the life God created you to know.

 

I also get the coolest opportunity to write, record, and share songs of hope with two of my closest friends in our band, Valley’s End.
 

​

Most of all, I just want to be faithful as I run after Jesus...and as a friend on the journey. I hope something here will be fresh wind in your sails. God adores you and I am thrilled our paths have crossed.
