I came to know the Lord through my Youth Pastor where I accepted Jesus Christ, as my Lord and Savior.  

My daily walk with Jesus is intimate.  I desire to know and experience Him more on a daily basis through His Word, Worship and Witnessing to others.

What I enjoy most about ministry in general is to see people enjoy and experience Jesus intimately.  In short, seeing people become more like Him through their obedience, loving others and bearing fruit for His glory.

My view of Scripture is very Christ-centered.

Being an immigrant as a Korean American, who came to the States when I was 5 years old, I hope and pray for God to use my ethnicity to reach out to more Korean, Asian Americans as well as all people.

I want to serve and shepherd a church where the discipleship process as well as the spiritual growth is incarnational (inspirational as well as practical), intentional (where commitments are made), incremental (step by step process), personal (helps one grow spiritually), and relational (growth occurs in Community).

I desire to serve, equip, mentor, shepherd, evangelize as well as disciple others towards the church becoming healthy and missional.

I believe the Church’s greatest need is to stay committed to the Great Commission (Matt.28:16-20) as well as the Greatest Commandment (Matt.22:37-39).

My wife Jennifer and I have a two year old daughter.  We hope to raise Godly families that will serve God, His church, as well as local and global missions for Christ’s glory.
