Ministry Philosophy

“My passion is helping others see God’s fingerprints in everyday life. Whether in the roar of a hockey arena or the timelessness of a baseball diamond. Especially in the quiet moments of family life, or the pages of Scripture. I believe God speaks as clearly through a coach’s leadership or a player’s perseverance as He does through traditional ministry. When we recognize His presence in all these arenas the pace of life is more manageable. Then we can engage in our extraordinary purpose as His ambassadors of grace in every corner of our world.”
