    I’ve been married to Molly since 2001. We have three daughters, Abby, Caitlin and Mary and one son, Hank. We like to laugh, play, swim, watch football, and learn.

    I graduated from the University of Illinois with a B.A. in Speech Communication, where I played baseball and married a swimmer. I also have an M.A. in Missional Theology from Covenant Theological Seminary, in partnership with the Missional Training Center in Tempe, AZ.

    I also help other pastors and church planters through my resource and coaching ministry, Faithful & Fruitful.

    I married Kristie in 2001, and we are blessed with 5 kids: Bethany, Harper, Benjamin, Judah, and Shiloh.

    I have been serving in ministry since 1998, and vocationally since 2004. God continues to show me more and more of my sin as I mature in Him, but He also shows me more and more of Himself and His grace that covers me, for which I am eternally grateful!

    I have a B.A. in Finance and an M.B.A. from Arizona State University, as well as an M.A. in Missional Theology from Covenant Seminary, in partnership with the Missional Training Center.

    A native Texan, I have been married to Jim since 1993. We have six kids, Kyla, Kevin, Rylie, Reagan, Jordyn and Presley (yep…just one boy). We are also proud parents to our bonus daughter, Alexis, who we gained when she married Kevin. We love being together, camping, puzzles, games, and FOOD!

    I graduated from Point Loma Nazarene College with a B.A. in Education. I have a M.A. in Education from Northern Arizona University and am working toward a M.A. in Missional Theology from Calvin Theological Seminary, in partnership with Missional Training Center.

    I love Ironwood Church and am grateful to work alongside a great group of people!
