Pastor Jim’ s desire is to see the local church passionately following Jesus. He is experienced in the areas of Discipleship Pathway Development, Preaching & Teaching, Growth Group Management & Development, Evangelism, Domestic & Local Missions, Community Outreach Partnerships as well as Executive Level Church Administration.

He loves the food groups of coffee and chocolate, would spend all day in the stream fly-fishing if he could (and he has) and loves spending time representing the Body of Jesus Christ in the local community.

Pastor Jim has a heart for evangelism, missions (Local and Global) and discipleship. He desires people to know Jesus Christ as Lord and Savior, and desires to see the church (both corporately and as individuals) recognize and pursue its God-given call to go into all the world to preach the Good News of Jesus Christ and to reach their fullest potential in Jesus Christ through the empowerment of the Holy Spirit.
