I first joined the military in 1985. After growing up in a good, loving family in West Virginia, I sought out my pleasures in anything but the salvation of our Lord and Savior Jesus Christ. After completing a Navy school at Great Lakes, Illinois, a man sat down and shared with me the glorious gospel of Christ; I was then baptized in His precious name to wash away my sins. Later on, I received the baptism of the Holy Ghost. I have served on four ships, done numerous deployments, and seen many countries; through it all I give God praise and thanks for bringing me through safe, saved, and dedicated!

During the years I have served in the military, God has blessed me with some interesting duty stations and also awards reflecting my testimony of faithfulness - to Him first, and then to my country. As you read through these pages, there are accounts of how God brought me through various issues of life: deployments, family crises, church problems, even backsliding and restoration. This is not by any means a glorious "this is my life" story...it is God who gets all the credit. My prayer is that you will be blessed by every facet this humble site has to offer in Jesus' name.
