    MEET THE COACH

    I'm a happy and dedicated husband to my best friend of 34 years, father to four adult children, grandfather, and a sinner saved by grace who loves and is loved by Jesus.

    About Me

    For over 25 years, I dedicated my life's work to pastoral ministry to teens and their parents. At the height of the COVID pandemic, my attention turned to helping teenagers who were impacted by trauma, isolation, addiction, and a lost sense of purpose that the global experience amplified. Recovery is

    I love Jesus, doing projects around the house, and helping others find joy and purpose in life. When I'm not working, I use my time writing, reading, cooking, re-learning how to play guitar, and dreaming about chocolate lab puppies.

    My Commitment to Personal Growth

    After receiving a cancer diagnosis in February of 2024, my coaching practice was refocused to pursue the best choices for my recovery and survival. One year later, through changes in lifestyle and successful treatment, I am carcinoma-free and healthier in body, mind, and spirit than at any time in my life.

    The QSC Mission

    QuadShot Coaching strives to point clients toward an active, growing relationship with Jesus Christ in every aspect of their lives.

    Core Values



    1. Scripture-based Authority: Everything I do, believe, and present as a coach comes through a Scriptural hermeneutic. (2 Timothy 3:16-17)
    2. Truth-Seeking: The coach/client relationship must be transparent, authentic, and honest for the sake of growth and forward movement. (1John 5:20)
    3. Authentic Witness: Authenticity will draw people to Christ. (Philippians 3:12-14)
    4. Life-Altering: QSC pushes clients to explore their comfort zones to expand outward as they grow deeper in their life purpose. (2 Timothy 1:6-7)
    5. Humility: All ministry must be clothed in humility. (1 Peter 5:5-6)
    6. All-Encompassing: Living a full life encompasses a whole-person approach; mental, emotional, personal, and physical transformation (Luke 10:27).
    7. Sanctuary: QSC provides a safe place for clients to question, brainstorm, and grow. (Psalm 27:1)
    8. Intimacy: Our relationship with Jesus is our youth ministry. (Psalm 139)
    9. Awe-Inspired Wonder: Ministry must allow us to regularly rediscover the astonishment of the vastness of God and His infinite love for us, compel us to seek answers from His Word, and leave room for His continual work in our lives. (Philippians 3:7-16).
    10. Creativity: QSC coaches clients to be free to discover and express their God-given creativity (2 Corinthians 5:17).

    Coaching Objectives

    The QSC objective is to help clients establish the following five components in their lives:

    1. Purpose: Centering God in their lives rather than centering their lives upon themselves.
    2. Understanding: Growing more and more like Christ, and less and less like the world.
    3. Success: Seeing people through the eyes of God, with the heart of God, and with a desire to share God with others.
    4. Fellowship: A time of communal growth for the Body of Christ. It can display itself in different aspects of the Christian walk.
    5. Service: Taking what the Lord has taught us (internal) and expressing it into the lives of others (external), both believers and non-believers.

#43: Inside Out

Ephesians 4:2

“Be completely humble and gentle; be patient, bearing with one another in love.
~Ephesians 4:2

GROWING IN SPIRITUAL FRUIT
When I ask people to identify where a working idea of the Fruit of the Spirit can be found in Scripture, the place most often identified is Galatians 5:22-24. That is understandable, since Paul says right there, “The fruit of the Spirit is…” as he names nine different but complementary aspects to a dynamic life: love, joy, peace, patience, kindness, goodness, faithfulness, gentleness, and self-control. The invitation to growing in God, living a life worthy of the calling we’ve received (vs 4:1) involves allowing the counsel and prompting of the Spirit to flow through our behaviors and actions. In this case, our humility (it’s God working in and through us) tempers us and teaches us (gentleness) so we may cultivate self-control.

Elsewhere, we are instructed that when we share truth with someone—truth that may hurt feelings or be intended to bring about positive change, but might be difficult for the listener to hear—we are to share our words with love; the first in the list of the fruit of the Spirit.
HOMEWORK
Can you think of someone who, from your perspective, could benefit from advice, your opinion, or correction of some sort? Most of us can, and most of the time that person is someone other than ourselves. God is inviting us to be transformed by the renewing of our minds and the restructuring of our lives. Remembering that we are a work in progress helps us to develop empathy toward our fellow works-in-progress. List three different areas of your life you can imagine God inviting you to change or grow in… what steps are you taking to allow transformation to take place in your life?
