If you’re reading this, I’m assuming you clicked on my name instead of Jerry’s and that means a great deal to me. It also means I better make it worth your while. I’m assuming you already know my name so I’ll skip to the good stuff. I’m a native Q-Town guy, and a graduate of QHS and Central Christian College. I’m married to this beautiful girl I grew up with, Shawna, and we are both involved in the worship and Fuel ministries here at The Crossing. We have a cat named Ada and compete at everything from Poker to Guitar Hero.  We share a love for home décor and style. We love spending time with family and friends and love it when God expands the circle.

I joined the staff at The Crossing in 2005 for video production which wasn’t at all what I went to school for. Leave it to God to place me in the middle of a ministry in the middle of a church in the middle of His amazing plan that I didn’t see coming. In the summer of 2008 He surprised me even more by calling me to pastor Fuel. God continues to burden my heart with the desire to reach beyond the church walls and live my faith in a real and missional way. My greatest passion is worship and being able to use my talents in an area that can draw so many different people together in a life-altering encounter with Jesus. Nothing like it. Except maybe owning my own theatre in Branson someday but that’s a whole other bio…
