Brian has been in full time ministry for over 30 years. Brian has served as a youth pastor, associate pastor, and campus pastor. He has a genuine love for people and lives out a commitment of meeting people right where they are in their spiritual journey and guiding them into discovering the life God is calling them into. He exemplifies the heart of a shepherd in the way he offers pastoral care, particularly to pastors and ministry leaders dealing with the challenges that are unique to them.
Over his years of ministry, he has experienced both the highest mountains and the lowest valleys in both his personal and ministry life. Brian believes that God never wastes pain and clings to the truth of 2 Corinthians 2:4, that God “comforts us in all our troubles, so that we can comfort those in any trouble with the comfort we ourselves receive from God.” After his years of pastoral ministry, he believes now is the time that God is calling him into a ministry of standing with pastors and ministry leaders to help them navigate the challenges of life and ministry.
Brian and his wife Robin live in Molalla, Oregon and have two grown kids, an amazing son-in-law, and two beautiful granddaughters. They enjoy playing music together, traveling, and spending as much time as they can in the sunshine. A good cup of coffee is always welcomed as well!
