I’ve been trying to find my purpose forever...Like 20 years. But I’m learning that purpose isn’t something you find, it’s something God develops as you seek Him. And it takes time for God to work your personality, your gifts, experiences and all your STUFF for HIS good.
So instead of trying to find my purpose, like the last 20 years, I’ve been asking Him to develop it. God started by giving me a vision in September of 2021: One where people were revolving everything around Jesus. He wasn’t compartmentalized, He was centralized. People were literally (in Him) living, moving and having their being; eating, drinking to the glory of God; working, chilling, Netflixing, parenting, husbanding, wifing. They were defaulting to His will, not their own.
The moon, for example, doesn’t have to think about revolving around the Earth. The Earth doesn’t think about revolving around the sun. They just do! That’s what we want:
We want to see people get INTO ORBIT
in their relationship with God…where this is what they do. I might help them get started, but, at some point, the thrusters fall off and their connection to God is no longer contingent on a preacher, church people, or an abundance of blessings in their life.
INTO ORBIT
My wife, Hanna and I sat on this vision until April of 2022 when God pointed us in a direction: To a city with almost 5 million people, growing by 100,000 people a year; where only 12.6% are evangelical christian; a valley full of people who desperately need to put Jesus at the center of their lives.

Hanna and I have followed Jesus together for over 10 years. We – along with our children –Lukas (6) and Mikah (3) moved to our new home in Buckeye, AZ to plant Orbit Church in February 2023. We believe God has called us to meet people where they are and help them revolve their lives around Jesus.
After finishing seminary, I spent the last several years doing ministry in the South and the Midwest in administrative, creative and teaching capacities. My desire is to take the Bible (full of depth) and communicate it in a way that is accessible to those who might be walking into church for the first time.
During this time, Hanna became a Licensed Professional Counselor and works at Connect Couples Therapy, a Charlotte and Phoenix based firm.
