Radical Hospitality
We sacrificially serve others to display the love Jesus
Intentional relationships
We purpose our time and energy to grow towards christ and one another.
Passionate Worship
We will honor God with all that we are,
Not just our songs and voices.
Mission Mindset
We are disciples called to disciple others.
As we grow, we will help others grow.
Change Makers
We choose intentional change rather than unintentional change
We will not fear it, but seek it to be more effective for Jesus.

As the Student Pastor at Horizons, my role is to provide teaching, leadership, and Vision for the student ministries. I attended Southwestern College (now Arizona Christian University) graduating with a degree in Christian Ministries. I have a passion for relational Discipleship and teaching God's Word. I enjoy music, movies, and sports. My wife Kassie and I have been married over 15 years, have three children, Emma(13), and Micah(6) and Noah (2).
