What is your stupid human trick?

I can spin things on my finger.  Lots of things.

What fictional character would you most like to eat?

I think the Kia Hamsters would be tasty.

What can most people do that you cannot?

Most people have some form of organizational administrative ability… I do not.

How many five-year-olds could you take in a fight?

It depends on whether or not the 5 year-olds have been mutated by gamma radiation or alien and ill-tempered.  If these facts where true and more like 50/50, I would have to say… none.

What 4 things are always in your fridge?

Miracle Whip, Milk, Cherry Coke Zero, Mio

If you could have one superhero power, what would it be and why?

I would be telekinetic.  In other words I would want to control objects and thoughts with my mind.  You know, pick up the couch with my mind, make red-lights turn green, catch a person falling from a tall building, make you have an itch but tell you not to scratch it…  You know, stuff like that.

What movie could you watch fifty times in a row?

It’s a toss up between Kung-Fu Panda and any part of the Band of Brothers Mini-series

Pirates or ninjas?

Ninjas

Jedi or Hobbit?

Jedi

What bible verse has had a huge impact in your life and why?

“You see, at just the right time, when we were still powerless, Christ died for the ungodly. Very rarely will anyone die for a righteous man, though for a good man someone might possibly dare to die. But God demonstrates his own love for us in this: While we were still sinners, Christ died for us.” - Rom 5:6-8

I am daily taken-back by the amazing love of God to die for an ungodly man such as me.  This verse shows the extreme love of God, my extreme need for Him, all while I am was His extreme enemy.  Blown Away!

What do you love about student ministry?

I love seeing students get God, get His Word, Get Truth, and apply that truth to their lives.  Students are dynamic.  They are idealistic, and for most, change doesn’t scare them yet.  Unlike many adults, students have a willingness to surrender control of their life to God, which encourages my faith daily.  Also, Student Ministry is FUN!  Why does worshiping the creator have to seem boring and so non-human?  Not in Student Ministry.  More Churches need to look like Student Ministries.
