Karl joined the team in 2019. He has been married to his incredible wife Jessica since 2004 and they live with their 5 children in Columbia, SC. Karl grew up in rural West Michigan but moved to South Carolina to complete his undergraduate degree in Theology at Columbia International University. He enjoys anything athletic and competitive, from basketball to Bocce ball, from ultimate frisbee to a rousing game of Spades (because no one in the south knows how to play Euchre). Family is everything to Karl. He loves spending his time whooping up on his kids playing basketball in the driveway, wrestling with all the kiddos on the floor, or getting as far away from them as possible to have a quiet date night with his beautiful bride.
Thank you, Father, for caring for our family and meeting our needs in more ways than we can count. You are a faithful God!
Father, I pray for my little children...that you would guard their lives as they grow. That they would grow up to know You and walk with You in sincerity. I pray for my big kids, for soft hearts that are sensitive to the voice of the Holy Spirit.
Father, we (Jessica and I) need your grace on us as partners and parents. For kindness, gentleness, wisdom, and perseverance.
Father, I feel your tender grip on my heart and I pray you continue to... "make your ways known to me, LORD; teach me your paths. Guide me in your truth and teach me, for you are the God of my salvation; I hope in you all day long." -- Ps. 25:4-5 Sincerely, Karl
