A Life Given to Exalting the Worth of Jesus
For the last two decades Drew has given his life to exalting the supreme worth of Jesus. From the United States, through the Middle East and into Southeast Asia, God encounters and subsequent movements of the Holy Spirit have followed. He has planted multiple churches, pioneered works of the Kingdom in the nations, and discipled men whose lives for Christ have made world headlines. Drew is married to the love of his life and has three children who are being raised with a passion for Jesus as the treasure in the nations.
A Collision with Christ
In 1998, seconds before suicide on a Texas highway, Jesus revealed himself to Drew in a powerful personal encounter, immediately calling him to the nations.
After Drew’s Damascus road experience, signs, miracles and wonders followed his life, and many came to know Jesus as Lord, including his parents. A small advertisement in the back of Surfer Magazine caught his attention. After calling the number, he found himself in Australia with YWAM, where Jesus’ commission to the nations on his life was confirmed. In 2001, at Oral Roberts University, Drew received his call to advance the Gospel of the Kingdom to the hardest, darkest, and most dangerous nations of the world. In response, he founded an organization sending college students to the frontiers of the Great Commission, including Afghanistan, Iran, Iraq, Indonesia and many others.Drew has given his life to exalting the supreme worth of Jesus in places hostile to Christ and the message of the Gospel. From smuggling bibles into war-time Iraq, to seeding church planting movements in Iran, to carrying out extended intercession and planting assignments in Southeast Asia, Drew’s passion is to be first an example and then a voice to the next generation of those called to advance the Gospel of the Kingdom.
He carries a deep love for the Bride of Christ and a dream to see the full number of Gentiles come into the Kingdom. A Matthew 24:14, Revelation 12:11 and Ezekiel 3:17 mantle rest on his life. Drew is committed to the work of prayer, the planting of churches, the equipping of the Body, and the mobilization of missionaries. His greatest joy is sharing the journey with his family and watching his children grow in their love for Jesus.
"I was saved seconds before death, renewed, and transformed by the unmerited grace of God's manifest presence, made available through the imputed righteousness of Christ, his Son. He sits at God's right hand in unrivaled glory, power and honor - now and forever. My life’s prayer is that God’s grace given to me, will not be without effect."
