Say "Hello Pastor Mike!" As a Pastor (since 1986) and Police Chaplain (since 1995), I am often invited to join people on their life journey. Via this channel, I invite you to join me on mine. If you are interested in growing spiritually, in your relationship with God as well as with those in your world, I encourage you to dive into some of my video conversations. I think you will find some helpful resources. And if you have a love for nature, I invite you to join me on my motorcycle excursions as I explore the backroads of America.
