• Education: I graduated High school in Milwaukee Wisconsin in 1975. I went to college at 40 years old and got my education from Nazarene Bible College
• Experience: This my first full time pastorate. I have been at Rosedale for 19 years
• Comment to those looking at my sermons: I put 100 % in every sermon, may the Lord use something to inspire my brothers and sisters in the Lord
• Family: My wife Debbie and I have 12 grown children between the two of us. We have 10 grandchildren and two Great grandchildren who are the apple of our lives. We have recently married after having spouses who lost their lives to cancer.
• What my parents think of my sermons: My mother is proud of me no matter what...she thinks the beginning sermons came from Mt. Sinai. Love is a great motivator
• What my spouse (really) thinks of my sermons: she is my best supporter and the one that will ask the most questions
• Best advice given to me about preaching: Be yourself and deliver the message the Lord gives you...not what others want to hear
• Books that have had an impact: See you at the top-Zig Ziglar All John Maxwell materials Henry Blackaby- Experiencing God
• Hobbies: I enjoy fishing and reading
• If I could Preach one more time, I would say...: I would preach a message on Holiness. Taking the authority we have in the name of Jesus. In the hopes of drawing people to the Lord
• Something funny that happened while preaching: I said Tomahawk instead of mohawk, and had the youth group drawing illustration as of a person running with a tomahawk out of his head.
• What I want on my tombstone: He made a difference in people’s lives
