The Lord has given me a deep love for ministry and a passion for reaching the lost. A passion for Young Life and for meeting teens right where they are; looking for love in all the wrong places, desperately seeking identity based on friends and reputation, enslaved by drugs and alcohol, broken by hard circumstances, and seeking love by things in this world that can not love them back or fulfill them. My heart has a burden on it for these teens and I want to be there among all of these things. I want to be a light in a dark world. I want to shine forth the Lord’s love, His grace, His hope, and His truth. It’s blowing my mind that He is calling me, of all people, to this ministry. But I’m ready to answer His call for my life. He has positioned me to shine forth His truth and I just want to tell them about the love of Christ and how fulfilling life with Christ is. I will not stop reaching out to people until they realize they are not alone and are changed for eternity. Here I am Lord, use me.

I have come that they may have life, and have it to the full. [John 10:10]
