My assignment: Change 
the world by building 
the church.
I’m all-in for the local church. After more than forty years rooted in the same church and years serving on the team at Champions Centre in Tacoma, Washington, I carry a deep love for God’s house and the leaders who build it. I spent years directing the Team Church Conference, with a mission to build teams that build the Church.
Today, my wife Lindsay and I lead Leading Second, a ministry devoted to helping church leaders thrive in the second chair. We travel widely to coach teams, partner with pastors, and create resources that strengthen church teams. My heartbeat is to champion leaders under authority and to come alongside them with clarity, conviction, and care.

My contribution:
01
Lead It Like You Own It
My debut book is a call for leaders to take ownership of the vision they serve. Drawing from years of leading and coaching in the Church, Lead It Like You Own It helps teams close the gap between what they intend to build and what they actually create.
