Summary
Ministry Philosophy: Glorify the Lord Jesus Christ in everything I do. To use the talents and skills God has given me to accomplish whatever goal He has set before me as I serve Him, any organization, and every person I meet, in every place and every situation. All my service will be based on prayerfully listening to and obeying everything God instructs me to do by faith in his Son Jesus Christ.
Ministry Objective : To serve whatever organization God sends me with all the strength, and fervor He has given me in the last chapter of my life. I will serve using my experience as a pastor, church planter, chaplain, educator, businessman/ manger, blue-collar worker, and family man, in any way I can possibly serve. I am willing to work long hours and sacrifice for any organization which is willing to sacrifice and serve our Lord Jesus Christ.
