I was born and raised in Sunbury, PA and am a graduate of Shikellamy High School. My wife Amanda and I still reside here and have 5 beautiful children, Dakota, Chelsie, Tristan, Hailey and Landen. I enjoy coaching baseball and football and have also coached basketball in the past. I love being a coach, and find it rewarding to know some of the players who I have coached as kids, have grown into caring and compassionate adults.
Growing up I attended Grace Lutheran Church, but never had a relationship with God. Through baseball I reconnected with two friends from high school, who would talk to me about God. I started attending SCC to support one of those friends, who played keyboard for the worship team and found the message of the Gospel refreshing and inviting. I was so encouraged that I had to share my experience with my wife. For the first time, I was hearing God’s words.
Since coming to faith, I have found a peace in my life that was missing. I learned how to forgive because God has forgiven me. Even when I turned my back on God, he never turned away from me. I love sharing the gospel with others, in hope that they too will find peace and come to faith.
