He is the founder of Fireside Ministries, an evangelistic outreach in Chicago. He has established ministries, and coordinated and trained volunteers for other affiliated churches. His heart has always been working with prisoners, the homeless, and those living in inner cities. He has travelled and delivered 2,750 Bibles to 20 countries, including Kenya, Brazil’s Amazon, Romania, Russia and to over 26 underground churches in China. His mission is directed toward training pastors to plant churches in prisons and to guide and encourage their chaplaincy programs.
He received his Bachelor’s degrees in Criminal Justice and Human Services from Northeastern Illinois University; a Master’s and a Doctorate in Ministry from Andersonville Theological Seminary; and a Master’s in Urban Studies from Moody Bible Institute. He has not forgotten the hopeless and helpless situations he used to find himself in before he was blessed by God’s saving grace. He has been a certified drug and alcohol counselor since 1991, which he uses to assist and empower those who are held in bondage by drugs and alcohol or otherwise dysfunctional lifestyles. With over 28 years in the social service fields he is founder and exec director of NCS since 1991. On April 29, 1995 he married and was blessed with two children in 2004 and 2006.показать меньше
