How did you end up at Greenwood Christian?
Before I came to Greenwood Christian, I was working for a local school district and really sensed a need for a change in my life. I had asked my small group at the time to pray for the possibility of a new opportunity. My LifeGroup leader approached me and said there was an open position at the church and that I should apply. God opened the door, and it's been amazing. Sometimes the best jobs find you. I love what I do and the great staff that I get to work with everyday.
What do you like to do when you’re not at work?
When I'm not at work, you can find me fishing. I always carry my fishing pole in the car wherever I go. I also love to play golf.

After we moved to Greenwood in 2012, I searched for a church home and eventually found GCC. I began working at the church in 2017. My kids had played in the soccer and basketball leagues, and I had been involved in the sports ministry as a coach and team captain. I also had started looking for part-time work while the girls were in school, so I was very pleased to find something related to my field of study.

I attended UNC at the same time as Michael Jordan, a geography major who took many classes in one of the history buildings I frequented.
How did you end up at Greenwood Christian?
Miraculously. I married an Indianapolis girl who hated her only year in Florida. With parents starting to age in nearby Lebanon, moving "home" seemed a good choice. I felt from the moment I interviewed with a GCC search committee that God wanted me here.
What do you like to do when you’re not at work?
I enjoy reading classic novels and am just 10 away from completing a list of the top 100 of all time. I became a pretty good bass fisherman during my 13 years in the Florida panhandle, and though my skills are greatly diminished now, I still like to "wet a line." I also enjoy golf, but unfortunately never possessed any talent that could decline. I often golf and bowl on the same day so I can say, "I had scores of 75 and 200....you don't need to know which score went with which game."

How did you end up at Greenwood Christian?
My parents worshipped at GCC, and invited us to worship with them. We were ready to explore church options, so we visited one time and loved it. Debbie Asbury asked me to be on her Women's Ministry leadership team. Perry asked me to work for him. John Sears asked me to direct All-Church Activities, and so on and so on.

After growing up in Anderson, Indiana, I moved out west for 10 years. I met my wife at a church in Las Vegas, and we moved to Arizona. After our time out west, the Lord was clearly leading us to minister at GCC, so we followed the call and have been ridiculously blessed along the way.

I was fortunate to make it onto the show both times, but sadly never advanced to the finals. Still, it was a blast
How did you end up at Greenwood Christian?
Greenwood Christian was looking for a Worship Minister in 2016 and a friend connected me with Matt Giebler. Turns out Matt and I had actually met years earlier at a conference, but apparently, I’m not a very memorable person.
