I’m a travel and adventure guide with more than 20 years of experience leading educational tours through national parks, museums, archaeological sites, and historic locations across the United States and around the world. My work brings together geology, archaeology, Egyptology, biblical history, natural history, and Christian apologetics in places where history and landscape can be experienced firsthand.
Much of my guiding life has been shaped by the Grand Canyon and my work with Canyon Ministries, a Grand Canyon-based tour and teaching ministry that has been leading biblical creation tours since 1997. I have been part of Canyon Ministries since 2014, including five years as Executive Director. I now serve as Director of Ministry Outreach, a role that gives me more opportunity to travel, guide, speak, and teach through field tours, churches, conferences, museums, and ministry events.
The Grand Canyon has been one of my greatest classrooms. I have spent more than 1,000 days teaching in Grand Canyon National Park, both along the rim and on the river, including more than 50 multi-day rafting expeditions and hundreds of nights camped along the banks of the Colorado River. Whether standing at an overlook, hiking into the canyon, or teaching from a raft on the river, I love helping people understand the canyon’s geology, fossils, archaeology, natural history, and biblical significance.
Beyond the Grand Canyon, I have conducted research and guided throughout the American Southwest, including national parks, monuments, museums, archaeological sites, and geological locations across Arizona, Utah, Colorado, New Mexico, and beyond. These landscapes include canyons, deserts, volcanic fields, fossil beds, ancient Native American sites, and many of the places that make the Colorado Plateau one of the most remarkable outdoor classrooms in the world.
I have also led educational tours through dozens of other national parks, museums, and historic sites around the nation. In museums, I often teach on biblical archaeology, Egyptology, ancient civilizations, church history, geology, fossils, and science. Whether in a gallery, on a trail, beside an artifact, or standing at the edge of a canyon, my goal is to make complex subjects clear, meaningful, and memorable.
Internationally, I am the founder and Tour Director of London Christian Tours, where I lead guests through London’s rich connections to science, church history, biblical archaeology, and some of the city’s most iconic historic and cultural sites. These tours include places such as the British Museum, the Natural History Museum, Westminster Abbey, the Tower of London, St. Paul’s Cathedral, and other major landmarks throughout the city.
I am also the founder of Egypt Christian Tours, which offers biblically focused tours through Egypt. These tours explore the world of the pharaohs, ancient Egyptian history, archaeology, geology, and sites connected with the Bible. Some of the locations we visit includes places like Cairo, Giza, Saqqara, Faiyum Luxor, the Valley of the Kings, Aswan, the Red Sea, and the eastern Nile Delta region traditionally associated with Goshen.
At the heart of what I do is a desire to help people connect places, artifacts, landscapes, history, and Scripture. I love teaching in real places, with real objects and real landscapes in front of us, because those experiences have a way of making history come alive and helping people see the world with fresh eyes.
