I’m a retired pastor with over three decades of dedicated service to my congregation and community. I am also an academic and I have spent years studying the issue of how to retain new believers into the local congregation.

With a profound passion for nurturing spiritual growth, I have studied the theological foundations and best practices surrounding the essential task of retaining new believers in Christ. Over the years, I have honed this understanding through rigorous study and practical experience, recognizing the pivotal role that effective retention plays in fostering enduring faith journeys. My commitment to this mission is not only rooted in my theological expertise but also in my unwavering dedication to guiding individuals along the transformative path of discipleship.
