I am called to preach and love to proclaim the gospel. I have preached and taught all age groups and I am very comfortable speaking to any size group.

I enjoy expository preaching and finding ways to communicate the truths of scripture to God’s people in ways that help them apply them to their lives.

I am willing to travel if there is financial help with the travel expenses.
