"Christian Minister, Illusionist, Illustrator, and Author"

I am a 28 year old Christian Minister, Illusionist, Illustrator, and Author. I hate writing these things, so it may seem a bit robotic, I'm sorry in advance. What I am and What I do is defined by my faith in Jesus Christ, and it is HE who delivered me from literal darkness.


I am bipolar as well as major depressive, yet the Lord has blessed me greatly with a heart for the Ministry. The Lord has helped me overcome so much, and I praise him daily through my works in illustration and the series of novels that I am working on.


I spent over half a decade in the Christian Comics Niche Industry, and have recently retired from it to spend more time on street ministry using street magic (illusions) and online ministry through my website and artworks that will be for sale on CafePress.


I am married, so far for 7 years, and have a five year old son whose name in Hebrew means "Praise". Every word out of his mouth for the past five years has really been in my mind a praise to God as my wife and I had trouble conceiving in the first place.


I live with my wife, son, and three cats, two dogs, and two goldfish.


I enjoy movies, music, books, and my family.


I have returned to full time ministry in 2008 when I will begin performing my illusions professionally as well as starting a church locally in Gwinn, Michigan.

Testimony
After being deep into the occult for over a decade, I received Jesus Christ as my Lord and Saviour in 2001. I am now going on my 7th year of being a Christian, and as I stated elsewhere in my profile, my faith does define me. I am also now an Ordained Pastor, though I am on Sabbatical to get closer to Christ and to understand the directions He wants me to go in in the ministry. I am working on a Comic Book series partially inspired by my life and what I have learned along the way, as well as writing non-fiction books in my spare time, one of which I have self-published on Lulu.com. I have been married for over 6 years to a wonderful Christian Woman, Stephanie, and have a young son named Judah. I am now returning to full time ministry as of January of 2008 which will include my performances as an Illusionist and motivational speaker!
