My father died on August 28, 2012. He would have been 91 on September 3. I thank God for the legacy he left us and for proving it’s never too late to learn and grow and change.

I’m a full-time youth pastor with four beautiful kids and an incredibly supportive wife. It is so hard to juggle ministry and family and do it well.

I'm the author of over 40 books and the founder and director of Eternal Perspective Ministries. I love Jesus, my wife Nanci, and our daughters, sons and five grandsons!
