About Sean
  • Education: I graduated high school from South Adams Jr/Sr High School in 2000 attended Taylor University Fort Wayne and graduated from Goshen College in 2011. I am currently pursuing another undergraduate degree from Western Governors University for Special Education.
  • Experience: I have been involved in active ministry since I was 18. I recieved my first charge in Nov. 2003. I have enjoyed Mission Trips to Guatemala for one month (Jan. 2001), Charleston SC for 2weeks (April 2000), NY City twice (relief work and preaching in Homeless Shelters in March 2002 and general mission work in March 2003), and Window Rock,AZ (Navajo Reservation) for Bible School and construction. I also forgot I served two summers for Child Evangelism Fellowship as a Summer Missionary teaching 5
  • Comment to those looking at my sermons: As a young pastor, I am always looking for input regarding anything someone can give me. E-mail me with any insights, comments, etc. at endgame_connor@yahoo.com
  • Sermon or series that made a difference: Not a sermon but a concert that I attended. It was Ray Boltz’ Concert of a Lifetime. It was at this concert that I was saved.
  • One of my favorite illustrations: Any time that I can use Star Trek
  • Family: I was married in 2005 to my wife (Becky), with whom I have one son (Aydian) and a daughter (Kathryn).
  • What my parents think of my sermons: They have started embracing my gifts after years of wondering if this is the correct path.
  • What my spouse (really) thinks of my sermons: She really enjoys them and gives fair criticism of them.
  • Best advice given to me about preaching: KISS - Keep it simple, stupid.
  • Books that have had an impact: Lord Foulgrin’s Letters by Randy Alcorn This Present Darkness by Frank Peretti Many others
  • Hobbies: I enjoy reading, watching movies and tv, Star Trek, and computers
  • If I could Preach one more time, I would say...: I don’t know.
  • Something funny that happened while preaching: I picked my nephew up during the service and he would not let me go, so I preached with him in my arms and the congregation loved it.
  • What I want on my tombstone: He died doing what he loved.
