I grew up in a small town in Wisconsin and was raised in a traditional church background. It was not until after college in 2001, that the Lord got my attention. God allowed me to restart a relationship with my high-school sweetheart, Michelle, who had just begun to passionately follow Jesus. We were married a year later, and now have seven children. How did that happen?!

In 2013, I left a successful and enjoyable career as an engineering manager to become a pastor of Hometown Church—a career and calling that I enjoy even more! As the executive pastor, I have a behind-the-scenes role focused on organizational management. But I also really like being out on the front lines, working and serving in the community and meeting new people.

Some of my ministry passions include helping people learn how to share their faith, passing on Bible-based parenting principles, and joining in community outreach. My prayer is that our church expresses the love of Jesus through our actions, puts our faith into practice, and changes the way that people think about Christ-followers.

Outside of ministry, I love hunting, playing golf, watching football (especially the Packers or when our two sons are playing), and hanging out with my family doing just about anything.

If you’re interested in reconnecting with God or starting a relationship with Him, I would love to meet with you!
