My family

I am a man strongly influenced and shaped by my family.

They are each beautifully unique and talented. Some were born to Theresa and I. Others chosen with just as much love. And our 'family genetics' - the heart and 'vibe' of who we are - is shared regardless of dna sources. We are followers of Jesus Christ. We love creating music together. Laughter is normal. Meals at the table are regular and highly valued.

Each person in my family has changed me for the better. Thanksgiving. Creativity. Sacrifical love. These are just a few of the qualities that I've adopted and still work to develop because they naturally occur in my wife and children. Being transformed in relationship is a core value of my life - spiritually, morally, socially. And I am thankful for the ways my family influences and shapes my character and behavior.
