    • Redeeming Life Church

      Jan 2015 - Jan 2019

      I oversee all our evangelism, discipleship, and missions efforts locally and globally. It's my passion to equip the church (the people) to know who they are in Christ, know what their unique gifts and abilities area and how to use those gifts for the expansion of the Kingdom in their workplace, neighborhoods, and communities. As I continue my pastoral development, my main goal is to grow in my personal character. Ministry for me looks like being an under shepherd of Jesus, caring for and nurturing people in our church through making and growing disciples, preaching, leading a weekly House Fellowship, leading Bible studies, occasionally leading worship, planning strategic outreach events in the community, and many other ministry functions.

      Feb 2019 - now
      Associate Pastor of Discipleship

      My primary role is to equip and mobilize the saints to follow Jesus, be transformed by Jesus, and join Jesus in His mission. I oversee all of the adult ministries in order to maintain alignment with our mission to make fully functioning disciples of Jesus. It is our hope to see a genuine disciple-making culture cultivated and replicated at The Mission Church. We believe disciple-making is THE ministry of the Church, not A ministry of the Church.
