About Me

It's always tough describing yourself in an objective manner.
"I don't need my life to be all about me. I don't even want my life to be all about me. But I desperately desire something important enough for which to give all my life." - Erwin McManus
I desire to impact whomever crosses my path; To be a good representation of Christ to them; To make people smile, laugh and feel encouraged; To cause people to think about what's significant; To challenge them to think about God and his involvement in their life; To be an ear; To offer insight, warmness and friendship; and To be approachable.
Personally, I love to make people laugh. I just moved back from California Where I was a youth pastor for the last three years. It was a great season, but God has called me back to Canada. (Which is an amazing story in itself... ask me about it sometime. Now I am at a new sweet church called Coast Hills Community Church serving as their associate/youth pastor and I love it! There is no greater joy than being a positive, active influence in someone's life while also building into them with the Truth. I also love music and have been in many bands playing the drums.
