Personal Philosophy: “Inspire Hope!”

I want everything I say, think, and do, to make a positive difference in the world, therefore I commit to live in such a way that I inspire hope in others.

My mission is to teach, lead, and model what it means to live out of the abundance of God’s grace.

 Intimacy with our God
 A loving family
 Good humor
 Kindness toward all people

Love is an action word of tremendous power that can change the world, so I freely share it with everyone without reservation or conditions.

Dependence on God
