Getting to Know Ross
Q: What is your favorite book or quote?
A: Favorite authors are C.S. Lewis and John Piper.
Q: What excites you about the Lightbearers' vision?
A: I get excited about both "igniting hearts" and "fueling missions" because I have experienced both personally through Lightbearers. It was through Lightbearers that my heart caught fire for what God is doing around the world and it is through Lightbearers that I've witnessed God fuel kingdom-building work among people groups that don't know Jesus. Because of the significant life change that both aspects of Lightbearers vision has brought about in my life, I get excited about sharing God's work through LB with others.
Q: Other than Jesus, what Bible character would you want to have lunch with?
A: David
Q: Other than Bible characters, what three people, living or dead, would you want to have lunch with?
A: My wife, my daughter, and CS Lewis
Q: What does a fun, relaxing day look like for you?
A: Sleep in. Read by Bible on our front porch. Eat breakfast in bed as a family. Go for a hike around Lake Fayetteville or go for a swim. Watch the St Louis Cardinals on TV. Grill some dinner. Rock Norah to sleep. Watch the sunset with Kate on the back porch. Read before bed. Asleep by 10 p.m.
