Introduction Greetings in the name of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ! I am a blessed man. I am married to Melissa and we have two busy and loud boys named Jude (3) and Johnathan (2). For a little over a year now I have been the Pastor of Victoria Community Church in Fontana, Ca. I love my church family and truly feel blessed to minister, preach and teach there. Our church is part of The Church of the Lutheran Brethren. A few years ago I graduated with my Bachelors of Organizational Leadership degree from Biola University. Shortly after this my family and I headed up to Fergus Falls, MN. for Seminary work. I finished a year there and then was called to serve as Pastor @ Victoria. In my spare time I read alot. I really enjoy the writings of Martin Luther and some of the Lutheran Dogmaticians that followed him. I also read a lot of recent stuff though. I have a passion for finding new ways to GO to all people with the good news of Jesus Christ's life, death and resurrection. Hopefully, this blog will be one more way that happens!
