Pastor Mark is a fully ordained member of the Free Methodist Church of North America. And even with all that, he is still a regular guy. “Being real and accessible to people is how Jesus lived the gospel everyday. My desire is to be just like that. I want to live my faith every day, so that others see Jesus in me.”

Although Pastor Mark has been part of the Desert Cross family for a short time, he has already grown to love the people and to be loved by them as well.  

He believes the Bible is relevant and applicable to every aspect of our lives. He loves to see people grasp that meaning of the scriptures and make it part of their lives. He believes that it is “a sin to bore people with the Word of God” and does his best to make the weekly message both enjoyable, applicable and relevant to life today.

He has a heart to see people’s lives transformed by the Word of God applied to their daily lives.

His wife Cindy is a great example of a godly, committed woman of God. She loves to share her life with the women of the church as a mentor and life coach to the ladies.
