Last Fall, I announced the release of a twelve-month Kids Ministry curriculum called Kids Empowered. We are using this curriculum at Threshold Church and it is awesome to see how the Lord is moving in our children. Some other churches are starting to use the Kids Empowered curriculum as well, and we are thrilled to see this resource spread. I am excited to announce the launch of a brand new Kids Empowered website! The mission of this...

I am excited to announce that I am working on writing a new book! The working title is Keys for Deliverance: Freedom from the Influence of Evil Spirits. When people consider the topic of deliverance from demons, there are a wide variety of responses. Some would rather not even think about it, considering it to be too dark or depressing. Some are fearful of the subject, while others are over-fascinated by it. Some are entirely skeptical of...

For the last several months I have been working on a new writing project. It is a twelve month Spirit-filled kids ministry curriculum called KIDS EMPOWERED!  I co-authored this curriculum with Nikki Patterson, who serves as the Kids Ministry Director at Threshold Church.

I am excited to announce a new season of ministry! Over the last three years I have served on staff as an associate pastor at Threshold Church in Lancaster, PA. After a discernment process involving the elder and oversight team, I was installed as the new lead pastor this past Sunday, April 10th. I am so honored and excited to be stepping into this role. Several years ago, the Lord spoke through multiple mentors that being a lead pastor was...

I recently announced the release of my latest book, Discovering Your Destiny. It is available in both paperback and Kindle (click here for Amazon page). I am so excited about this book and the impact it is going to have on people’s lives. The biblical principles outlined in the book are very practical, and have had a dramatic impact on my own journey of discovering and walking in my God-given purpose. Throughout the book, I share...

I am excited to announce the release of my new book, Discovering Your Destiny. It is available in both paperback and kindle version (Click here for Amazon page). We all know that we were created with a God-given purpose. Yet, many believers go through life without a clear sense of what they are called to do or how to go about fulfilling their calling. That is why I wrote this book! Discovering Your Destiny outlines biblical principles...

As 2015 came to a close and 2016 began, I felt a call to pick up the pen and focus more on writing. This takes on two primary forms: articles for my blog and book projects. On January 1st, I received an unexpected text message from a member of the church where I serve, wishing me a Happy New Year and asking if I had ever considered writing a book about discovering your destiny. Early in 2015, my wife and I had hosted a small group with that...

I love to write! Communication through the written word is a powerful way to teach, encourage, and inspire. I have written three books and hundreds of articles…but in 2015 I didn’t write a whole lot. Whether it was circumstances, schedule, or just lack of discipline, my blog was not kept up with and I did not write any books. As 2016 begins, I’m feeling like its time to “pick up the pen” again. I will be...

The theme of this conference is receiving a fresh outpouring of the Holy Spirit and being empowered to walk in His gifts. The apostle Paul said this to Timothy: “Therefore I remind you to stir up the gift of God which is in you through the laying on...
