He’s had quite the adventure following Christ through a B.S at LSU, Kanakuk Kamps, Focus Leadership Institute, MDIV at Midwestern and serving the church since 2009. Church Ministry began in Colorado Springs, where he met Amy, his wife since 2011. They now have five kids and have been at Faith since 2021.

More About Ken
What do you enjoy about the work you do?
My family and I get a front row seat to the messy and miraculous work of God, its incredible! I love sharing the love of God with people through ways they understand like time together, sharing in hard things, meeting needs, good food, to share the gospel, God’s Word and see our lives, marriages, and communities transformed by the hope of the gospel. I am passionate about helping people, especially men, find their identity is solely in Christ Jesus and never walk alone in the dark again. I also love seeing men lead their homes and those homes becoming gospel outposts for making disciples.
