But God, being rich in mercy, because of the great love with which he loved us, even when we were dead in our trespasses, made us alive together with Christ—by grace you have been saved. Ephesians 2: 4-5
“My passion is that every man, woman, and child in our community would have an opportunity to know God’s love through Jesus Christ. I am humbled that God has given me a platform with coaches and athletes in our community and I want to give Him glory by serving as He calls.”
