About Me

I am married. Have been for 20 years. Syl and I have 3 kids. Kikki is 15, Kayla is 13 ans Josh is 10. I am the pastor of The Open Door Community Church. The OD is an awesome place to explore community and faith. It is chuch that doesn't look or feel like church. We are a group of people trying to figure out how to live life and walk with God. We place great value on being real. This may seem easy, but it is messy at times. We laugh, cry, party and scream at each other. Most importantly, we love each other and this world God created. We are not perfect and don't pretend to be. We do church messy.I also run On Rock Ministries, which operates a drop-in center for kids, a soup kitchen and a food bank...

I am a bass player. I love passionate music. I hate cats...
