BIO:

My life is based on two confidences: 1. God is all goodness in whom there is no evil, and 2. There is nothing that can happen today that, together, God and I cannot handle.

I have spent the last twenty years walking with people through some of the darkest moments of their lives. As a pastor, counselor and chaplain, my personal motto has been to meet people where they are and walk with them. I have been a companion to struggling pastors, couples, angry teens, sex addicts, as well as those struggling with personality disorders and serious mental illnesses. It has been one of the greatest privileges of my life to have had a part in bringing hope and healing to many lives.
