GETTING TO KNOW OUR NEW PASTOR

 

If you weren't a Pastor what would you be doing? I would be a radio or wedding D.J. - I actually was a D.J. for a while in Casper, Wyoming while I was a youth Pastor. I would play Christian music and teens would call in for life advice. It was awesome but the room was too small and I would get claustrophobic...glad I didn't choose this as a career.

 

What do you do when you're not at work?  Hanging out with Cindy, taking walks/hikes, seeing movies, playing tennis and golf, fantasy sports leagues, reading history for fun, watching history channel & ESPN.

 

Sweet or salty? Definitely salty. French fries, potato chips, chips & salsa

 

Favorite flavor of ice crème? Salted Caramel

 

What's in your CD player? The Eagles are always close by (I'm not gonna lie, I cried when I heard Glenn Frey died this week.) Kutless, Hillsong (Oceans is my favorite worship song) Needtobreathe, and Jesus Culture.

 

Favorite TV shows? American Pickers, Andy Griffith show, Baseball Tonight

 

Recent movies? The Revenant, Woodlawn, Daddy's Home

 

Favorite Movies of all time? Raiders of the Lost Ark, The Lord of the Rings trilogy

 

Life Scripture verse? "We loved you so much that we shared with you not only God's good news but our own lives, too." 1 Thessalonians 2:8
