Originally from Honolulu Hawaii, my wife Debbie and I have ministered in the Chico area since 1997. I lived in the L.A. area for a few years striving to become a "Rock Star". My whole life was centered around music and the spotlight. I loved Jesus and I knew He was real but there was no way I made Him relevant in my life. I was not walking on the path He had laid out for me. I was talking the talk but in no way was my lifestyle showing people around me my faith. I basically ignored the calling of the Lord for about 10 years going from band to band before moving to Paradise and re-dedicating my life to God in 1996. I became a worship leader then started the Christian pop rock band JBC from 1998 to 2007. I became a Pastor in 2013 and life has never been the same. Full of good times and quite a few struggles but God never gave up on me and neither did my wife Debbie. I am one solid example that God loves us and has a plan and purpose for each of us!
