A pastor for pastors because you're in their corner—but who's in yours?
ABOUT
Pastoral ministry is a high calling—but it can also be a lonely, painful road. Over the past two decades, I’ve served in nearly every pastoral role: youth, worship, associate, teaching pastor, church planter, campus leader, and lead pastor. I’ve experienced both the deep joy of shepherding God’s people and the hidden pain of burnout, betrayal, and exhaustion.
Today, I serve as the U.S. National Director of Step Up to Life Ministries, where I provide support to pastors who are spiritually drained, isolated, or overwhelmed. Whether you’re facing personal pain or simply need a fresh perspective on your preaching, I offer personalized coaching, sermon feedback, and professional training to help pastors thrive in ministry.
I hold a B.A. in Pastoral Ministry and Bible (Grace University), a Th.M. from Dallas Theological Seminary, and a Doctor of Ministry in Advanced Biblical Preaching from Talbot School of Theology. My doctoral research focused on equipping pastors with the tools to preach effectively while navigating the complexities of pastoral life.
If you're seeking confidential support, feedback on your sermons, or leadership development through workshops and coaching, I’m here to help. You don’t have to walk this road alone—and there is hope for long-term renewal and resilience.
