I love making the truths of God’s Word understandable, practical, and compelling. In a complex, fast-moving world, the Bible powerfully changes hearts and lives when allowed to take root. God has allowed me to see that happen overseas as well as in established churches in America. Seeing others grasp the portable truths of Scripture has fueled my ministry from the beginning.
