“God has given me the heart to teach the future leaders of the church. To encourage them in their walk and see them become fully devoted followers of Jesus Christ. My heart is to see my God become their God; for the faith they have to be the direct result of a personal relationship with Jesus Christ. I want them to know who God is, why they trust Him and live out a life that would not only please Him, but point others to Him.”
