| Introduction | I am not a counselor, nor am I a therapist. I am simply a man who has been taken as low as he could be and broken, so that the Lord could rebuild me. It is my intent and, I feel, the Lord's calling that I tell my story and use my testimony of the awesome grace of Jesus Christ to help others. Mine is a story of rebellion, addiction, conviction, and salvation. I am here to tell all those out there, believers and unbelievers, that there is nothing that you have ever done in your life that God will not forgive. Turn your eyes upon Jesus and He will have mercy upon you. |
| Interests | I have a great love of history, both foreign and American. I enjoy speaking to anyone who will listen. My main interest is sharing the love of Christ in my daily walk. |
| Favorite movies | Fireproof, Passion of the Christ, The Dinner Guest, Star Wars, The Lord of the Rings. I enjoy good comedy that doesn't involve filthy humor or the need to be vulgar as well as a variety of action and drama films. |
| Favorite music | I enjoy a great deal of Contemporary Christian and also Hymns. Bands like: Casting Crowns, Mercy Me, Third day, 33 Miles, Mandisa, Toby Mac, Jeremy Camp, etc. I do like the music of Michael Buble', Frank Sinatra and Dean Martin as well. |
| Favorite books | The Bible, Systematic Theology by Norman Geisler, Mere Christianity, Evidence That Demands a Verdict, The Case for the Resurrection, Crime and Punishment, When Critics Ask, The Irrational Atheist, The End of Reason,and more than I can recall. |
