About

I am an ordained minister and a full-time hospice chaplain along the upper Gulf Coast in South Alabama.

This area is also where I’ve once served as a Beach Wedding Officiant of 5000+ beach ceremonies, having been featured on Fox News and ABC Good Morning America in 2010.

Before becoming a hospice chaplain I served as a full-time trauma hospital chaplain in nearby Pensacola, Florida (I still serve on staff as a part-time weekend trauma chaplain) and prior to that I served 12-years as the full-time pastor of CrossHope Chapel, a nondenominational church in Mobile, Alabama.

In addition, I have served as pastor for Adventist denomination church districts of two congregations in South Carolina (Rock Hill – York and Aiken – North Augusta) and in Northeast Alabama (Fort Payne – Guntersville).

My educational background includes degrees in religion and pastoral ministry from Southern Adventist University. Since 2001 I have been involved in ministry with Southern Baptist churches and with Calvary Chapel churches in my last pastorate.

I hold to the Bible as the ultimate standard of truth, and you can read more about my faith at my Christian Testimony page and my Statement of Faith page.
