He grew up in a Christian family, in one of the largest and oldest Reformed communities in America located on the east coast of the U.S.A. He attended Calvin College, Grand Rapids, MI for pre-Law – consisting of Religion, Theology and Philosophy. Upon graduation, he moved back to his hometown in New Jersey which allowed him the freedom to work in Youth Ministry. He met his wife while working in a Christian Single’s Ministry in 1987 and she has radically changed the way he thinks and does Christianity (he calls her "my grace note"; she has a Doctorate in English Education). His wife’s inspiration and energy over the past 35 years has spurred him on to be involved in a number of large and small church, youth group settings. He moved, briefly to Vermont in 2008 but in 2011, he was hired as the Director of Youth Ministry in a church on Prince Edward Island, Canada. As the world keeps changing, so does the way we do Youth Ministry. One of his biggest blessings is that after all that time he still loves working with youth.
His life has consisted of a number of plateaus that God has faithfully guided him and his family through. Although, youth ministry began for him, almost 35 years ago the energy and dynamics of that group sparked a desire within him that has remained and flourished throughout his entire life; a passion to implant a Biblical worldview into the hearts and minds of young men & women who will become Christian leaders of tomorrow. He has been directly involved in the growth of 7 different Christian schools in 2 different countries. God has used his talents in his community, in business, in Christian education and in Church through areas of music, coaching, administration (board of directors - Pres. & VP, council), fund-raising, public speaking, church education & training, and youth ministries. He has experienced mountains of faith by traveling through valleys of despair. In 2014, he was diagnosed with Parkinson’s disease which has been a whole new cluster of challenges to overcome. Yet, as he continues his life's journey with God by his side, the Lord continues to bless him and his family, holding them tightly in the palm of His hand, while giving him a renewed faith, as he is even more convinced, each day, of God’s overwhelming love.view less
