Lead 

I have an awesome wife named Chelsea, and three fun boys (4, 2, baby)! I've been at Crossroads for 10+ years, helping lead it for 5. I truly am grateful to be used by God to help lead this  church family alongside of people I love being with. Some other things I enjoy include watching the Chiefs, mountain biking, videography, hanging out with my family and friends, proving LeBron is the GOAT, and going on adventures  whether that be hiking, traveling, or simply trying out a new coffee shop!

Associate (Care & Outreach)

I'm married to my beautiful wife of 18 years, Shelby, and together we have three kids: Austin, Makenna, and Cambree. I'm excited to be back at the church I grew up in, and where my journey in ministry first started. I was Youth Pastor at Crossroads for 6 years, before moving to Florida in 2010 where I served as a Worship Arts Pastor until we decided to move back home in 2016. I then served at Hope City in Joplin until 2019 when I was asked to come back to Crossroads. My family and I are excited to be back home! We enjoy traveling with our friends and family; I’m also a diehard Chiefs and Jayhawks fan.

Worship

I'm married to my amazing wife, Shelby, and we are both incredibly grateful to be apart of the Crossroads family!  There are a lot of things I love to do in life, (backpacking, reading, enjoying coffee, going to concerts - just to name a few). But what I love to do most is serve the Lord, and I am grateful that I get to do that alongside some amazing people! 

Family (Children & Youth)

I am so excited to serve the children, youth, and parents here at Crossroads Christian! I grew up in Joplin, went to school in Webb City, and I am currently finishing up my Theology degree at Ozark Christian College. My dream is for families to read and teach Scripture together, pray together, and worship together in their homes and for children to know and love our triune God and be shaped by His Word. My perfect day would include reading classic fiction, biking in Northwest Arkansas, throwing some ultimate frisbee, eating Chick-fil-a, quoting Lord of the Rings and The Office, playing Catan, and watching some Chiefs!
