My name is Geoff, pronounced Jeff, but most people call me - Ge-Off! I grew up in the small community of Dale, America - just outside of Shawnee, OK. Just outside of Dale, my family has an 80 acre farm. I was the fifth generation to live on our land. That place holds a very special place in my heart.

I love the outdoors - fishing, hiking, camping, riding bikes, and yes doing yard work. My favorite place for vacation is going to the rocky mountains for backpacking. There is nothing better than carrying everything I need on my back and being in the beauty of God's creation - there is something holy about it.

I also love Church Camp! Spending a week living together, while working hard to live together as God calls us to live, gives us a glimpse of what living in Christian Community is really all about!

I am a youth minister - working with youth is my passion, my calling. Helping them to understand God's love for all people and Jesus' heart for reaching out to those in need is amazing work!

Currently, I am a student at Phillips Theological Seminary, working on a Master's of Divinity Degree.
