Testimony

My parents came to Christ when I was 4 years old. My dad quickly became a spiritual leader in our family and on the way to church he told me about Jesus and how he died for my sins so I could have a relationship with God. As a 5-year-old child, I placed all my faith in Jesus.

Favorite Scripture

Colossians 2:13-14: "You were dead because of your sins and because your sinful nature was not yet cut away. Then God made you alive with Christ, for he forgave all our sins. He canceled the record of the charges against us and took it away by nailing it to the cross."

Testimony

I grew up not going to church. In college, Jesus shook my world so much that I "randomly" bought a guitar. God gave me the gift and ability to learn quickly and before I knew it I was leading worship, met my wife, and am continuing on this amazing journey - seeking to be led by the Holy Spirit & glorifying Jesus Christ alone.

Bible Verses

Romans 12:1 - Therefore, I urge you, brothers and sisters, in view of God's mercy, to offer your bodies as a living sacrifice, holy and pleasing to God-this is your true and proper worship.

Significant Experience with God:

Our son Harper was born 10 weeks early. Megan was rushed to the hospital in Albany via ambulance. After an emergency c-section he was immediately taken to the NICU and my wife was taken to recovery. At that point I wasn't able to see my wife nor my child. Even though I was scared, unsure, and anxious, all I could do was pray - "God, you are in control, I trust you for the outcome, and know that through whatever you have in store for us, You will provide the strength." Harper is thriving now, you wouldn't even know he was born early. We give all glory to Jesus and share this miracle with all those we come into contact with.

Testimony:

I grew up in church all my life. When I was 5 I understood enough of the Gospel to know I needed Jesus to not go to hell. Once I went to a Kid's Camp, I understood that my relationship with Christ was so much more than the promise of Heaven. It was then I decided to live my life for God's glory and do things God's way. Now I continue to be amazed that in spite of my flaws, God still manages to use me to accomplish His plan.

Favorite Bible Verses:

John 3:30, 2 Peter 1:9

Significant Experience with God:

Most of my greatest moments with God involve music. Something about it connects heaven to earth and I'm able to stop talking, singing, or thinking my own thoughts and truly listen to what God wants to say to me.
