Do not be conformed to this age, but be transformed by the renewing of your mind, so that you may discern what is the good, pleasing, and perfect will of God.
Romans 12:2 (CSB)
Who We Are
A Simple Calling
Centered on the Good News of Jesus
Everything I do in ministry flows from one simple truth: the Good News of Jesus Christ is the hope you and I desperately need. My calling is to share that Gospel clearly, teach the Bible faithfully, and train others to do the same.
My Ministry Philosophy
Acts 2:42:
“They devoted themselves to the apostles’ teaching and to fellowship, to the breaking of bread and to prayer.”
My vision for Mind & Soul is simple and Gospel-centered
- To proclaim the Good News of Jesus through verse-by-verse Bible teaching and preaching.
- To welcome fellow travelers, the broken, and the hurting into simple churches (micro, house, table, etc) where Christ is known.
- To embody the gospel in everyday life in my own vocations as a Husband, Dad, Pop, Nurse Educator, and Minister-at-Large.
- To use what I've learned through the school of hard knocks, years of education, and decades of experience to mentor, coach, and consult with leaders and churches who desire to build the same kind of Christ-centered ministries.

Speaking & Preaching
For nearly 30 years, I’ve preached and taught in churches, conferences, retreats, and small gatherings — always with one goal: to make God’s Word clear, practical, and centered on the grace of Christ.
I teach expositionally — drawing truth straight from Scripture — in an engaging style that connects the Bible’s ancient truth with real life today. Whether it’s a Sunday service, revival, or weekend retreat, my aim is simple: to help people hear the Gospel, see Jesus more clearly, and walk away encouraged, not exhausted.
Media
Through sermons, podcasts, and Bible videos for kids, I share the hope of Jesus in ways that reach every age and season of life. Each message — whether it’s a Sunday sermon, a podcast conversation, or a “Lucas & Goose” Bible story — is crafted to teach God’s Word with clarity, warmth, and joy.
From thoughtful discussions on faith and culture to creative lessons that help children fall in love with Scripture, my goal is simple: to make the truth of Jesus accessible, engaging, and real for everyone.
Articles
My writing is honest, Scripture-rooted, and shaped by real life. I write to help people wrestle with faith, find healing from spiritual wounds, and rediscover grace in the everyday. Each article blends biblical truth with personal reflection — less about polished theology, more about walking with Jesus in the mess and mercy of real life.
Whether unpacking a passage of Scripture or exploring what it means to follow Christ through pain, doubt, or joy, my goal is always the same: to help readers see that grace still works — and it’s still enough.
Simple Church Ministry
My wife Michele and I lead a simple, Spirit-led house church in Bullitt County, Kentucky — a close community of believers who gather around Scripture, prayer, and shared life. We believe the church is at its best when it feels like family and when grace, not performance, defines our fellowship.
Our vision is to see more of these small, authentic gatherings take root. This is why I also train and release other house church leaders, helping ordinary believers learn to shepherd others with humility, biblical grounding, and a heart for grace.
