Hi. My name is Gary. My story began with a childhood of sexual abuse and numerous other losses. When my life began to unravel as a teen, another family took me in and changed the trajectory of my life. My healing journey began. Eager to help others heal and grow, my heart turned outward. Over the next three decades, I served as a campus minister, a church-planting missionary in Japan, an entrepreneur in Hawaii, and a pastor. I'm currently work as a writer, speaker, and hospice chaplain. After walking through deep valleys with thousands of people, I can say the following with confidence: • We've all been wounded • Healing isn't for sissies • We’re all designed for impact • The world needs us • We must heal I'm here to help. I'm no guru or master of anything. I'm a fellow struggler. I still bear the scars of my wounds. I grieve, get anxious, worry, and battle fear regularly. But I'm healing, and I'm growing. Stop by my website. Drop me an email. I’d love to hear from you.
