My greatest earthly joy is my wife Kenia. Kenia is a wonderful woman—humble, kind, and deeply committed to Christ. She works as an HR director for a large company and is a fantastic support to me in my pastoral role.
Me and Kenia are blessed with four young adult children:
Eris (Pre-Med, Cal Poly Pomona)
Chloe (Literature, Cal State Long Beach)
Arnold (Business Administration, La Verne University)
Arwen (Jr. at San Dimas High School)
A number of Christian thinkers have shaped my development and continue to influence my thought. Three of the most significant of these are C.S Lewis, John Calvin, and Abraham Kuyper.
Kenia and I enjoy getting out in nature: hiking, mountain biking and backpacking. We also enjoy attending basketball and baseball games and visiting museums. Last year we completed seeing all 21 California Missions!
