About Me

I have the wonderful privilege of serving as founding pastor of the Montclair Community Church in Montclair, NJ. It is one of the most loving, grace-filled and grace-extending churches you’ll find anywhere. From its inception almost 28 years ago, the gospel of grace has been woven into the fabric of our church. It is the DNA that defines who we are and who we are becoming.

I am a follower of Jesus Christ who is gripped by the irresistible call of a compelling grace. He continually challenges me to join Him on a journey to becoming fully alive in Him. I am joined on this journey by my wife, Janet, who is the love of my life. After 41 years of marriage, I still find my wife more breathtaking than a thousand sunsets! Janet and I have four amazing grown children—Patti, Nancy, Lori and Steven—of whom I am very proud. I also have five wonderful grandchildren—Leah, Hannah, Isaac, Audrey and Henry--and another grandchild on the way!

Anyway, that’s enough about me…be sure to check out my webpage regularly. I'll be posting new blogs at least once a week...or probably more! And I'll be posting a different videotaped message each week as well.
