Time in the Ministry/Call to the Ministry: 33 years; I was at a youth camp in Eastern Oklahoma. My father was "camp pastor" and I had been struggling with a sense of God's leading to commit my life to Christ in full-time Christian service. By the end of the week God had used several people and circumstances to firmly demonstrate that this was His plan for me. That week and the specific events in my life that week have helped me to stay on course and focus my life for Him.
Life Verse: 2 Timothy 1:7 "For God did not give us a spirit of timidity, but a sprit of power, of love and of self-discipline."
Hobbies: Reading, racquetball, travel, drinking coffee
Hometown: Born in Shawnee, OK but my father was a Pastor, so don't really have a "home" town.
