Helping Christians grow in precise and intentional discipleship
Most Christians long for deeper spiritual growth. You want to thrive as a disciple of Jesus — not just attend church, but live with purpose, confidence, and a faith that shapes your relationships, your work, and your everyday life. You want to follow Christ in a way that feels intentional, personal, and transformative.
But many believers feel stuck. Church is good, Bible studies are good, yet the growth you desire still feels out of reach. One month you're studying Paul, the next King David. The content is solid, but the path forward is unclear. It can feel more academic than personal, more informational than transformational.
I understand that frustration.
As a Christian and as a pastor of more than twenty-five years, I've watched countless believers hunger for growth yet struggle to find a clear, sustainable path. I struggled to lead it myself. The turning point came when I realized that spiritual growth isn't about another program or another study — it's about a precise, intentional journey shaped by who God created you to be.
When I began following God's unique calling on my heart — slowing down, listening, and intentionally pursuing the next step He was leading me toward — everything changed. My faith deepened. My joy returned. My discipleship became personal again.
That discovery eventually became PrecisionFaith.
Who I Am
I retired from the U.S. Army in 2019 after serving as a Chaplain, then returned to the pulpit in the local church. Along the way, God opened another door: writing. Since 2020, I've published more than twenty books, including:
- A ten-year journey through the Psalms
- A seven-book Prayer Series rooted in biblical models
- A seven-book devotional series following the church calendar
- Two stand-alone books on finding Jesus in everyday life and navigating faith with honesty and humor
At home, God has blessed me beyond measure. My wife, Regina, and I have been married for thirty-nine years. She has walked with me through deployments, ministry seasons, and every chapter in between. We have three grown children, are raising a fourth, enjoy seven grandchildren, and share life with our dog, Ellie.
Why PrecisionFaith Exists
My mission is simple:
To help you grow as a disciple of Jesus with clarity, intention, and confidence.
PrecisionFaith provides tools, resources, and guidance that help you:
- Understand where you are spiritually
- Discern where God is leading you
- Grow with purpose rather than randomness
- Become a disciple who makes disciples
Through books like Jesus: 21 Days That Can Change the Way You Pray, along with weekly articles and practical resources, I want to help you thrive in your faith — not someday, but now.
I hope you'll join me on this journey.
