How did you come to HCKB?

I was brought to Hope Chapel by my mother when I was in the second grade. All I really remember about it was that we were at Heeia Kea Pier and the children met in a room that smelled of fish.

Ministry Passion

My passion for my ministry is see all of God’s children (married or single) connected with Him in a new and deeper way and also to see them connected with each other.

Biggest influence in your life over the past year and why

The biggest influence over the past year has been my girlfriend Keao. She has made me a softer and better man.

Fun Stuff

Travels
I love traveling! I’ve been to Japan, Canada, Mexico and 10 or so states.

Hobbies
I enjoy playing golf (not golfing), scuba diving and working in my yard.

What you do for fun
See the above question.

What makes you laugh
A quick wit.

Favorites

Books
I think I have favorite authors more than books. I love to read John Grisham, Michael Crichton, Dean Koontz, Clive Cussler and John Feinstein.

Music
I am a HUGE Beatles fan!

Movies
Of course I need to mention the Star Wars trilogies (in the words of Randal, “There’s only on ‘return’ my friend, and that’s of the Jedi).

TV
I recently bought a TiVo and I’m lovin’ it! I would recommend it to anyone. It goes nicely with my 56” widescreen.
