Recognizing Signs of Trauma in Children
I’ve been working with children for most of my life, first as a volunteer in the church, then as an elementary school teacher, a children’s pastor, and now as a missionary. I’m passionate about equipping children’s ministry leaders around the world to reach, disciple, and empower children. Since 2005, I’ve worked as a global trainer of children’s leaders, equipping men and women to minister effectively to children in their context.
My work has spanned 26 countries on five continents and has included the equipping of national trainers, advocating the importance of investing in the next generation, and helping establish networks to work more effectively for the sake of children. Men, women, and youth I’ve trained and equipped have gone on to impact the lives of hundreds of thousands of children around the world. I also serve on the global leadership team of the 1for50 Movement, whose vision is to see every child in every community have someone to reach, disciple, and empower them to become Kingdom Champions.
