About

I am the founding pastor of The Followers Church.  I moved to Idaho with my wife Michelle and our three children Caleb, Sierra, and Jacob in 2009 in response to God's call for us to plant a new gospel-centered church that would bring worship to Jesus.
 
I enjoy spending time with my family and playing in the outdoors (hiking, camping, horse riding, boating, hunting, mountain biking).  When I'm indoors I like to play guitar and read with a strong interest in bible study, apologetics, and general theology.
 
I often pay the bills by working in information technology roles, particularly network security or programming.

Quotables

"Take heed to yourselves, lest your example contradict your doctrine, and lest you lay such stumbling-blocks before the blind, as may be the occasion of their ruin; lest you unsay with your lives, what you say with your tongues; and be the greatest hinderers of the success of your own labors." -Richard Baxter in The Reformed Pastor

Then Jesus told his disciples, “If anyone would come after me, let him deny himself and take up his cross and follow me. For whoever would save his life will lose it, but whoever loses his life for my sake will find it. For what will it profit a man if he gains the whole world and forfeits his soul? Or what shall a man give in return for his soul?"  -Matthew 16:24-26 (ESV)
