OUR LEADERS

Roger is passionate about seeing people experience grace, salvation, freedom, healing, the empowerment of the Holy Spirit, and a new sense of purpose as they are equipped to fulfill their calling in the Kingdom of God.

Originally from Winter Park, Florida, Roger has been married to Jackie since 2001. Now that their adult son, Aiden, is working at Lake Region hospital and has moved out, they’re now empty nesters. They also have a tuxedo cat named Joy.

Roger has a Bachelor of Music degree from the University of South Florida, a Master of Music degree from the University of Illinois at Urbana-Champaign, a certificate in leadership and Biblical studies from the Vineyard Leadership Institute, and a Master of Theological Studies from Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Kansas City, Missouri. While beginning his career as an opera singer, the Lord abruptly called him into ministry at an Encounter God retreat, and he began serving in ministry in 2003.

Roger enjoys date nights with Jackie, vacationing in Florida, reading voraciously, walking around Lake Alice, lifting weights, running, riding motorcycles and scooters, smoking meat, playing/studying chess, watching movies, buying/selling/collecting watches, and roller skating and playing video games with Aiden.
