About Mike
I journey alongside men who are seeking a more personal, intimate relationship with
Jesus.
My conviction and personal experience is that such a relationship with Jesus Christ is the only answer to the brokenness, confusion and emptiness that all humans experience to one extent or another. That emptiness and confusion, I believe, is the result of a broken relationship with the God of the cosmos Who created all things.
While the answer is simple and direct, the journey rarely is. My primary work as a spiritual director is to listen and reflect with those who are seeking a deeper relationship with Jesus to the invitation the Holy Spirit extends for them to step on to the path that is being laid out for them.

What Others Have Said:
“I had the privilege of having Mike work with me in the Spiritual Direction process. His warmth and compassion put me at ease from the start and he made it easy to talk about difficult subjects. What I appreciated most was his desire to enter into the presence of Jesus and let Him lead our time together. I would highly recommend him to any man seeking spiritual direction.”
What Others Have Said:
“My time under Mike's spiritual direction was incredibly fruitful. With Mike's guidance, I was able to draw nearer to the Holy Spirit and listen more intently to what God was saying in my life. Mike guided me through a tremendous time of transition and helped me tune in to what God was trying to say to me. In addition to learning how to more fully navigate my present, Mike also helped me to seek and experience God's forgiveness for things in my past, allowing me to forgive myself as well. Mike's ability to listen and to be fully present while drawing on wisdom from the Holy Spirit was paramount during our time together. I continue to draw on my experiences with Mike as I navigate daily life. Mike's faithfulness and ability to escort someone closer to the Holy Spirit are a rare and true gift.”
