Mark was born in Batavia, NY (wherever that is?). He has been married to Kristie since 1992 and they have two boys they are very proud of…Bryson (1996), and Caedmon (1999). The newest addition to the family is their pup Rainie (think Mount Rainier without the “r”). They are a tight-knit family and have traveled the country following the Lord’s leading in ministry. Mark loves the outdoors and would just as soon be on a trail as anywhere else! He received his Bachelors in Bible from Hardin Simmons University in Abilene, Tx. and his MDIV from Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary. He has been at Verde since June of 2018, after serving in several churches in different capacities (Young Adult Pastor, Preaching Associate, Student Ministry, and Campus Pastor).
