Birthplace:
Germany(My dad was in the Army at the time)

Odd fact:
When I came to Northwest Hills I had dark brown hair. Not now! There are plenty of other odd facts about me, but I won’t go there now.
 
Education:
Bachelor’s in Social Science, Southwestern University, Georgetown, TX
Master’s of Divinity, Iliff School of Theology, Denver, CO
Doctor of Ministry, Asbury Theological Seminary, Wilmore, KY(No, they don’t call me “Doctor Trawick.” I won’t let them.)
 
Where to find me other than the church:
The gym, running errands with Jill, Starbucks (just Grande bold coffee, no “dessert in a cup” for me), the great outdoors
 
Why I’m in the ministry:
As a young adult I came to faith in Christ and my life received new meaning, purpose, and value. I grew up in a good church and learned plenty of Bible stories, but somehow managed to miss the real meaning of Jesus. I want others to know the wonder of the good news of Jesus and experience the difference he makes. I try to preach and teach in a way that anyone can understand. I want to build a church where it’s hard to miss the truth.
 
Greatest joys in ministry:
Praying with someone as they receive Christ into their life
Watching “the lights come on” as church goers become Christ-followers
Seeing members become ministers and some even become paid staff
So many great people and good friends
