About Me
I currently live in Columbia Missouri with my wonderful wife of 20 years, Susie (Hagen). We have two beautiful children, Brianna who is 15, (and just got her driver's permit, please pray for us, or send words of wisdom), and Abbi who is 7. I am an insurance broker specializing in commercial insurance, and Susie is re entering the work force after successfully raising two girls, to the point of weaning them over to the public school system. (Ugh)
In addition, I serve as a board member for Beloved of God Ministries, and run a fellowship in our home. And even more recently, I became a board member for a local church that reaches the inner city youth, called Destiny of Hope. We continue to love God and grow in His Word, and are enjoying much fruit!
My Interests
Working the Word, believing to live it and growing in my absolute conviction of God's unconditional love. Besides that, I enjoy spending time with my family, playing a little basketball, and some golf from time to time.
Employment or Career
Insurance broker.
Music I Like
I am still a classic rock fan, and have been since the days it wasn't classic. I am also developing a taste for Jazz.
Books I Like
Of course, the bible, The True Justice of a Just God, I give You Authority, and on the fictional side I like Tom Clancy, John Grisham, and James Patterson.
Television I like
Discovery Channel, America's Funniest Home Videos
Movies I like
Action adventure, thriller types.
Sports Teams I like
The Mizzou Tigers.

Well, I see that the two of you are celebrating your birthdays. Now that is convenient!
Does your ministry have a website? Great talking with you. Say Hi to Susie!
Go to the home page and listen to "We Are Sons of God", Precious Lord, "Wake Up America" and Ted's "Ready to Go". They are on the "America Awakes" album/ Joyful Noise had 3 albums with a few on display also. "Our Hearts Knit Together" and "Give Christ A Try" are amoung my favorrites. Eventually, I'll get more of the songs from the list. "The Love of God" by Living Waters and "It's Gotta Be God" played before a fellowship really help people get their heads into the Word and out of the world.
Have fun. Keep me informed.

I got an email from Ted Ferrel offering to help me get a cd of the music! I am so excited about getting it.
I was talking about you with a friend the other day. I told them I could see why you are on the board for the ministry. You have a great heart for God and a genuine desire to serve. When I grow up, I want to be just like you.
