More than anything else Mike will tell you that his joy in life is being married to Terrie his college sweetheart. They have 5 daughters, 2 sons in law, and 2 granddaughters.  For more than 30 years Mike and Terrie have served the Lord in planting churches and leading established churches across Canada.

Most important to Mike is his faith in Jesus Christ as his leader and Lord. Free time for Mike means motorcycling, hockey, skiing and hanging out with his family.  He loves to read and is no stranger to thinking outside of the box.

After completing a Masters degree at Tyndale University College & Seminary in Toronto, Mike earned the Doctor of Ministry at Gordon-Conwell Seminary in Boston.

Working with the Billy Graham Evangelistic Association, International Needs, SIM and preaching in countries around the world has equipped Mike with a global perspective on faith, injustice, and poverty.

Both in and beyond the church, Mike is an effective communicator. His heart for world missions has taken him to several countries where he has taught pastors, conducted evangelistic crusades and been involved in various humanitarian projects. Along with pastoring Mike has enjoyed opportunities to use media to share the good news of Jesus. Those opportunities began years ago with 100 Huntley Street’s Nite-lite, a radio program called Journey On.

Almost 3 years ago Mike launched his own radio program Find The Way. Last year the broadcast expanded to television. His programs for 980 AM-CKNW, 650 AM CISL in Vancouver B.C. have enjoyed a substantial audience across Canada.
