About Chris...
Chris has been married to his wife, Rachel, since 2007, and has a beautiful baby daughter named Laura! He is an ordained minister in the independant Christian Churches / Churches of Christ and has a passion to see teenagers learn who the real Jesus is. Chris is a youth minister at The Carpenter's Christian Church in Harrodsburg, KY. He loves Dr. Pepper, Cheez-Its, and late night talk shows. (He even attended Late Show with David Letterman once with his grandmother. The guest stars were Orlando Bloom and Alicia Keys. Did you see that episode?) He also enjoys skydiving, playing music, but probably his most useful hobby is writing. His writing includes authoring two books, occasional magazine appearances (including Group Magazine), but his favorite is writing articles for his church's newsletter every month... that or writing messages for his youth group!

Favorite Cool Quotes:
“If you’re in a forest and there’s nothing but green trees —everything being as you’d normally see it—but then you see a blue tree with blue bark, blue leaves, blue branches, well, it would catch your eye. And as Christians we’re called to stand out, to be different—like blue trees.” -Aaron Boyd (lead singer of the band Bluetree)

"People are as young as their dreams and as old as their cynicism." -Tony Campolo
