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.
Praise God for Evelyn graduating from Spring Hill High School next month! Please be praying for her transition to the University of South Carolina this Fall. She is our first child leaving the nest and it will be a big change for all of us.
We praise God for the continued growth of our kids, both spiritually and physically. We are thankful for God’s constant shaping of their hearts. Please pray that God would set them apart and protect them from the lies of the culture.
Please pray for Karl, that he would be a man surrendered to God's will and God's way, that he would lead his family with the heart of a servant, and he would overflow with authentic love and care for the men of Columbia. All for the glory of God!
