How did you meet Jesus? I went through college trying to live out "Animal House" dream, but found it empty. At the time I was 19 years old and the empty promises and dreams failed to fulfill me. This awareness opened the door for a friend to introduce me to Jesus. After a series of conversations and interacting with a Christian community I was convinced of the truth of the Gospel and committed my life to following Jesus.

411 on Linda and the fam:
I met my wife Linda at a youth ministry training event. She is a registered nurse who is currently working as a full time mom to our three boys - Ben, Danny and Jonathan. We've been married for 17 years!

@Park
What I do:
Pastoral Leadership to various Outreach Ministries

Dream for Park: - That God would use us to be a catalyst for creating a network of churches committed to bringing spiritual and physical renewal to every neighborhood in Chicago.

What I love about Park: God has given this church a passion to see Chicago become "the city of God."  It is great to work towards a purpose that is way beyond anything you could hope to accomplish individually.

Before Park: I was serving with World Team in west London.
