The Lord’s call became very evident to me in 1996. He called me to be a pastor shepherd and since 1997, I have been faithful to this calling. God’s Word is God-breathed – authoritative in its inerrancy and transformative in its application. In His Word, God reveals His calling for His shepherds to disciple those who are new to the faith and to equip all believers to serve as Christ has called them to serve [Eph 4:11-13].

After graduating from Liberty University in 1999 with a Bachelor’s degree in Religion, entered into fulltime ministry as a youth pastor and eventually as an Associate Pastor. In 2010, I graduated with a Masters of Divinity from Shepherds Theological Seminary in Cary, NC. A year later, Cornerstone Bible Church would be birthed in Brookline, New Hampshire. I pastored CBC from 2011 to 2023. Joel Gibbs was voted in as pastor two months prior to my departure and has faithfully served as senior pastor since then.

My wife, Luciana, and I have six adult children and three grandsons. We also have a great love for God and His Word. God has been so very faithful in leading and providing for us all of our days. We both are passionate about equipping this next generation to reach more lives for Christ. Our personal vision is – to Know Christ and Make Him Known. [1Cor 9:16] For if I preach the gospel, I have nothing to boast of, for I am under compulsion; for woe is me if I do not preach the gospel.
