About

I grew up in a Christian home with godly parents who served full-time in vocational ministry. I have never known a day when I did not identify as a follower of Jesus Christ, and recommitting to that identity is part of my daily walk. ​My wife, Mary, and I have five children and are blessed to now be grandparents. As a father of a large family, I am passionate about helping other parents raise their children “in the training and admonition of the Lord” (Eph. 6:4). ​Since 2011, I have worked with families nationwide whose children face emotional, behavioral, and psychological challenges - helping them find the resources and treatment they need when home efforts are not enough. While that work is offered as a paid service, Personal Development Foundation now enables me to support Christian parents at no charge.​ A lifelong student of God’s Word, I participate in ongoing Bible studies and hold a bachelor’s degree, an MBA, a law degree, and certification as a parent coach.*​ If you or someone you know needs prayer or parenting support, I would be honored to help.
