Jay grew up in the Dayton, Ohio area, and at a young age under the preaching ministry of his father, made a sincere confession to follow Christ. Later, after moving to Southern California and in the youth ministries of Grace Community Church in Sun Valley, California, Jay grew in his love for the Lord and developed an affinity for biblical counseling, biblical languages, and mathematics. After graduating from The Master’s University with his bachelor’s degree in Biblical Counseling, Jay pursued pastoral training at The Master’s Seminary and received his Master of Divinity in 2015 and Master of Theology in Bible Exposition in 2018. Jay currently works at The Master's University and is also a part-time professor for the university's online program, specifically teaching and facilitating a Biblical Interpretation class and Romans class. Jay loves to study the Word of God in the original languages of Hebrew, Aramaic, and Greek and shares a passion to use the resources God has given him to lovingly shepherd God’s people in the local church with effective Bible understanding through faithful preaching, teaching, and counseling. Jay has been married to his lovely wife, Julianne, since May 2016.
