      <image:title>About Jeff - About Jeff</image:title>
      <image:caption>I’m not a theologian, but I like theology, not a philosopher, but I like philosophy. I’m just someone who has felt the call of God all his life, accepted God early in life and surrendered later in life, putting God first in everything. My purpose is to help people come to a relationship with Jesus and help them grow that relationship in their daily lives. My goal is to be a trusted voice of Biblical truth with gentleness and respect, to help people understand what the Bible says about God, about themselves, about life and eternity. My passion is to help people understand there is one true God - the God of the Bible. That he knows each of us personally and wants to be in relationship with us - with him as God and us as his children. But sin separates us from God, eternal hell is real and that’s where we’re headed without reconciling with God. But the good news is that God, by his grace alone - that is, he chooses to show mercy, he doesn’t have to - offers us a way to reconcile with him. For God so loved the world that he gave his one and only Son, that whoever believes in him shall not perish but have eternal life. Jesus died to pay the price for us as a gift to save us from eternal separation from God, and that we can receive that gift by simply accepting it through faith - repent and believe. That’s the Good News. I pray that you will come to know the truth about God and Jesus, that you will humble yourself before him, pray and seek him, and turn from you earthly ways. It would be my pleasure to help you. Please connect with me to explore God in your life.</image:caption>

      <image:title>About Jeff - Personally</image:title>
      <image:caption>I’ve always described my personal priorities as: Faith-Family-Work-Golf. And, after faith, family starts with my wife Cindy. She is the impetus that starts everything and the glue that holds it all together. We’re the kind of couple that does most things together. Of the 5 Love Languages, ‘Quality Time’ is probably top of the list. And, in 2021, we celebrated our 40th anniversary. Together we raised two wonderful children (a boy and a girl), both of whom have started families of their own with five grandchilden between them. Other than faith, golf has been my one life-long passion and I play as often as possible.</image:caption>

      <image:caption>Always Ready Workshop A 90-minute, interactive experience where participants come together to share thoughts about being ready to talk with people about Jesus. The collaborative environment helps each person improve the clarity of their conversation through the process of having to articulate their own thoughts, as well as hearing the thoughts of others, helping to give them other perspectives that help them improve their message. The workshop also includes a brief overview of the expanded Evangelism Training Class, including Loving God and Loving People, Praying Ahead, Leading with Questions, Using The Law, Understanding God’s Grace</image:caption>

      <image:title>Evangelism - Evangelism</image:title>
      <image:caption>When I surrendered my life to Jesus, God put a distinct call of evangelism in my heart. It is the foundation of my ministry. My initial training was completing the School of Biblical Evangelism though Living Waters Ministries. Much of my early work was in the streets and malls around south Orange County. Today, my approach is ‘Everyone, Everywhere, All the Time’. Everywhere I go, I’m looking for opportunities to talk to people about God. Christ has different doors for entering into different people’s souls. Into some, he enters by the understanding; into many, by the affections. To some, he comes by the way of fear; to another, by that of hope; and to some, the way of the conscience. - Charles Spurgeon …….</image:caption>
