MOTIVATION FOR WORKING IN THE YOUTH MINISTRY:

SALVATION TESTIMONY:
I was born into a Christian home in Wisconsin. My parents taught me at an early age to live right and to love God and His Word. When I was four, Pastor Roberts preached a gospel message on a Sunday night; when we got home from church that night I asked my dad if I could be saved, and he led me to Christ.
As a teenager God began working in my heart to draw me to Himself. As I grew in Christ my heart became more tender to the call to ministry, and I surrendered to preach at the age of sixteen. Two years later I entered Ambassador Baptist College in North Carolina, where I trained for the ministry and graduated with degrees in Bible and Church Music. I worked in the youth group back home for several years before coming to Bethel as youth pastor in 2007. It is beyond words to see how the Holy Spirit works in the lives of young people to draw them to Christ; to God be the Glory!
