Joel is a native of Northeast Florida and lives in St. Johns with his wife, Marie, and son, David. He came to Christ in 2013 out of Judaism, where he learned to be a "good Jew" but did not have a relationship with God. He has a passion for teaching the Bible so others can know and worship the true and living God.
Joel loves to read, play sports, and spend time with his family. He will talk about the Bible with anyone he meets and loves to be challenged in his beliefs. He believes that one's faith is strengthened only when it is put to the test. He welcomes opposing views and enjoys a friendly dialogue.
He has a B.A. in Business Administration from Flagler College, an M.Div in Apologetics from Liberty University, and is currently finishing up his D.Min in Pastoral Theology from Calvary Chapel University.
