How did you come to Shepherd's House Church? The Holy Spirit really gets credit for this one, but I was referred to fill in as a guest worship leader by Pastor John Amstutz. From there, it was all the Lord!
What do you enjoy most about SHC? Though there are many things I am drawn to about the church, I deeply value the humility and surrender of leadership and our Pastor as they follow Jesus and trust in His perfect plan as well as an intimacy with the Holy Spirit that is reflected both in services and personal relationships.
Favorite Bible Verse:Daniel 3:18 after they say in (17)"If our God whom we serve is able to deliver us from the furnace of blazing fire and out of your hand, O king, let him deliver us. (18)But if not, be it known to you, O king, that we will not serve your gods and we will not worship the golden statue that you have set up."
Favorite Food: (I'm limited with food allergies) If I'm being unhealthy, gluten free Pizza is so good and YES pineapple goes on my pizza every single time. If I'm being healthy, I love fruit: especially peaches and raspberries
If you could meet anyone in the bible, other than Jesus, who would it be? Ananias (Acts: 9:10-17) - I love how though this follower of Jesus is only briefly mentioned, he was brave enough to pray over Saul as he became Paul. Without this man, we don't have the most influential writer of the biblical text in the New Testament, yet most people don't even remember him.
