He and his wife, Dawn, have been married since 1984 and have five grown kids, four of whom are married. They also currently have eight grandkids.

Jeff loves all things water, working in his yard, shopping with Dawn (for her, of course!), eating out, and is an avid fitness buff.

Jeff served on church staff before and after receiving his Masters in Divinity from Southwestern Seminary. He has been a youth pastor, outreach pastor, church planter, and lead pastor/founding pastor of HighRidge.

Jeff loves helping young pastors step into their purpose and destiny, as well as serving in and encouraging the local church. His hope is that this book will encourage people to receive and enjoy life in the Holy Spirit.
