I currently serve as a pastor at Christ Lutheran Church in Monroe, Michigan and as the Director of Coaching in the Southeast Michigan Synod. I love to help the Church use the power of emerging technology to share the life-changing power of the gospel and a belief that God is always in the business of making things new. I live in southeast Michigan with his wife Rev. Robyn Kistemaker, who is also an ELCA pastor, our two young children Lucas and Noelle, and an adorable golden-doodle, Eevee. As I coach I bring with me experience in: congregational redevelopment, life as part of a clergy couple, an adoptive parent, and parenting a child with special needs.
