Invite me to preach.

Do I preach at churches and Christian conferences?

Yes. I became a Christian at 15, and I have served in my church as a youth leader, a worship leader, a men's ministry leader, a deacon and in care ministry. In a church the work is preaching, not a talk about myself: a sermon out of the Bible, with the things I have lived through as the illustration rather than as the subject. A Sunday service, a church conference, a camp and a youth event are all the same work.

What is my testimony?

I was diagnosed with severe hemophilia A at 3 months old, died from blood loss at 4, and was revived. I got about 19 days of school a year, taught myself to build the web on the family computer in our dining room, and became a Christian at 15. At 19 I was healed in a way I still cannot account for, and today I am an AI engineer at IBM in Berlin. The whole account, 1992 to today, is on my story page, in chapters, written by me.

What do I preach?

A sermon from the Bible. The text is the subject and my life is the illustration, not the other way around. That includes the healing at 19 that I still cannot account for, which is a better argument for the text than it is a story about me.

Where am I based, and what language do I preach in?

I live in Berlin, Germany, and I preach in English. I travel for churches and church conferences the same way I travel for tech conferences, and I have spoken across Europe, North America, Asia and Africa.

How do you invite me to preach?

Email is the fastest way. Include the date, the church or the event, the city, and what the occasion is: a Sunday service, a church conference, a camp or a youth event. You will get a straight yes or no.
