Though that has not always been in an official, full-time capacity, time has only fortified my desire to build the Kingdom, equip believers, and exalt our Savior. As a perpetual recipient of God’s grace I have given my life to being a conduit of that same grace, through servant leadership, relationship building, and sound doctrinal teaching."
