My old HOME TOWN. Seward, Alaska.
Please watch this as it depicts wonderfully showing the natural beauty of this place that I believe is God's little nook!
Just check it out! The old Town I lived in for 5 years and LOVED it!











Hello! I suppose I would say of myself that I am a radically transformed man of God. My life has been so totally changed. I am Jewish by bloodline but believe in Yeshua as the true Messiah. I would say about myself that my life belongs to Jesus Christ now. Hobbies? Hmm well when I did have them I went Kyakking, fishing, sightseeing, hiking, anything in the out doors so long as the weather was good. I love to go to an occasional movie and love concerts and live events. Once i got REALLY SERIOUS with God, He started using my life and I have not been the same since. Most of my life right now is at the church where I attend either in serving in our leadership team, teaching Sunday school for men, leading a small young men's group on Thursday nights. I am teaching young teen boys about purity "dating versus courtship.", being a mentor to younger men I am raising up to be leaders, helping the tech team by operating the TV cameras or in regular services or serving other people in some Godly capacity of one way or another or not to mention now being an Armour bearer to my pastor. My favorite things to do is pray for people, watch God heal them, Speak prophetic words over people, go to home prayer meetings and watch God completely transform lives! Mentor younger folks and serve my pastor as a spiritual Armour Bearer to Him now. I also am on the church home visitation team now. Thats ME! I used to live for myself and now I don't think I do anything for myself entirely anymore and it has been so awesome! I remember there was a short time in my life where I gave into the demands of people to look good to people in terms of what others said. Now, I no longer ever worry about that. Friendship and the heart of a person and love for God in Jesus Christ are what drives and motivates me! Not money or prestige.






My real heart for ministry lies in two areas primarily, 1. Pastoral ministry. "I was in school for that having been raised up by my pastor and through my church. It was a School of ministry but now waiting for funds to go completly Official and actually goto bible college for Pastoral training." Finances have been a challenge for everyone in these trying times but I remain Faithful and Loyal to God and I know He will provide for school and the equipment needed for school.



2. Short term world missions. I actually lived in the country of Panama for 2 years. I spent time in Mexico. I've been to South America as well as eastern nations. I helped take an entire church youth group/teen church on a missions trip to Thailand and through South Korea. That was awesome! Christmas 2004, we gave away our Christmas to Orphans dieing with AIDS. That trip changed our lives!
I am not married for now and am taking full advantage of this wonderful gift of singleness to seize this full season in my life. Marriage would actually HINDER this season of training and ministry. I ran from my calling for so long and now, I am all in and going at it full force! Yet, my single days are going to end sooner than I thought. I met someone REALLY special. Tammy Lowry from Texas!!! She is an absolute Angel! and My one true LOVE!!! Hey, Good looking too!!! That's a real bonus. She's a looker!!! :) I met Tamnmy almost a year ago now and during that year I asked her some really tough questions. I tested her. I told her everything about me even stuff I felt would be the real test. She passed every single on of them with flying col,ors. No red flags. God gave me deep true inner peace concerning Tammy. I held on for a really long time and finally after I knew that I knew with much prayer, council ling and deeper serious consideration, I knew Tammy was THE ONE. So I asked her to marry me and she said Yes. I think in her heart she knew I had not arrived at this decision to marry very lightly at all. Now, she has made me the happiest man alive. I am so looking forward to being married to her always and forever. Until death do us part.
I am now currently in an online bible college working towards being ordained as a pastor while working in the church I serve in.
I also dabble at writing. I love to read a lot and have written a few things but always seem to put these projects down in order to fulfill more important ministry needs especially with being a pastoral intern. Maybe one day God will allow me to pick something up and finish it. People who have read my work say I have books inside of me, but it's not a huge priority for me. i just like to write is all. nothing published.

In Closing, many wonder what moves me or impresses me. I see so many people trying to get accepted or be the one in the spotlight or whatever. Then I meet those few very exceptional people who do not see the spotlight and give their lives for others. Even everyday or those we deem as everyday folks. True heros of our society, unsung heros we see everyday yet do not recognize enough.
I think of countless stories I have heard of folks selflessly giving up their very lives to help others and yet you'd never hear of them on CNN or CSPAN News.
What impresses me are the lives of such people who gave so much and our world is changed forever by it and yet we hear very little about them. Even the folks behind the scenes who make things possible for others.
You see, I don't care about popularity, acceptance, money, fame, cars, houses or any of that. Not even the acceptance of many kind for that matter. That's not what drives me. I am not a 9 to 5 guy at all!
I am not into titles and official recognition. When I become a pastor I could care less of someone calls me Pastor John or Brother John or Just John. It doesn't matter to me. Infact I was worried that going to bible school would cause me to become dead in my heart to love people because of how I have seen folks come out of seminary "Cemetery". Heads for so called ministry and the heart just dry. I didn't want to become COLD because of divinity. I am the kind of man that when I see some injustice, I could care less of rank or title or social standing nor even how much money or fame some one has. I would risk it all to stand toe to toe and confront the person; "In Love of course" and see people helped and changed for the better. I am not afraid to take risk or step out on Faith even at personal cost. It's the way I am, the way God made me. I could care less about being politically correct and I don't stomach too well the niceness of skirting around issues. Never have and never will. I love stories of real men and woman who risked everything to help others. Like William Wilberforce who spent his entire LIFE to see Slavery abolished in England! That's the kind of SPIRIT that MOVES me! OH yes!
I am not content to spend my life to rest on comfort while my true calling lies undone and others suffer!
Some people say not to rock the boat, they think business as usual or church as usual is all right. yet we still have a culture riddled with so many problems. Teen suicides, divorce on the rise, Meth addictions, People addicted and afflicted still when we have the true Living GOD inside of us yet those who need him most are still turned away.
I don't live my life for a career or to pay off some mortgage or to reach retirement. Give me a break!!!
I live my life totally in Faith knowing I was meant for MORE than all of that and I refuse to get comfortable with that.

They say what a blessing the church is and yet just ask someone how many people they have seen get saved in their own lives. Whom they have stepped out and taken a risk and witnessed to. Personally I am tired of it being "Church as usual" when some one still suffers! When single moms are homeless and the number of them rising in our nation. OH I could go on and on. But you get the point. I am not the usual guy who wants recognition and the appeasement of money and the so called "good life." Me, I would rather die serving God poor in money than I would die in a mansion and never bring one single soul to Christ or see reformation and revival come to this nation of ours. What Good is a good sermon if no one takes it and steps OUT there in faith?

YUP, that's me. I got a fire in my bones and the Holy Spirit inside that won't let me just coast through life on a title and some career! OK. That's NOT who I am.
MY provision and MY comfort comes from GOD! Not career, not the government, not some JOB, God and GOD alone!
and as the old Hymn says; "Though none go with me still I will follow!" and I don't care what the cost is. That's ME and who I am!
Amen!


I am a full on prayer intercessor much like lou Engle is. I never asked God for this but still the same he will give me these huge heavy Godly burdens for people and it will not let up until I pray through and storm the Heavens. No kidding! i will be like totally sound asleep and God will wake me up like at 2 or 3 AM sometimes and all I can do is HIT THE FLOOR and there i stay until I pray through. I am also doing more fasting as part of this. My last fast was 21 days and man oh man! God moved! I saw some deeply personal breakthrough.
