Dreams I have for WPCOC:
I dream of a church where each person is growing daily into the image of Jesus Christ. I dream of a church equipped to live out the mission of Jesus in the greater Fresno area. I dream of a church that continues to be multi-ethnic, equipped to reach across the multicultural tapestry of our community. I dream of a church that highly prizes every child, every marriage, every person, every family, and every lost soul.

Personal Interests/Hobbies:
Baseball (especially Texas Rangers baseball), Turkey Hunting, Coaching Trae's softball team, Reading, Spending Time with my girls.

Favorite Bible Verse:
"The one who is in you is greater than the one who is in the world" (1 John 4.4). I love this verse because it reminds me that the empowering, indwelling Spirit is stronger than the adversary. I am strengthened to overcome Satan attempts to nullify my faith because the one living within me is greater.
