Lee loves Jesus, and his greatest goal in life is to pursue the Lord in whatever ways God nudges him. His hope is to build relationships that go beyond the typical—connections rooted in authenticity and a shared desire to further Christ’s kingdom together. Having lived in Florida most of his life, Lee loves the cold, even if the closest he usually gets is opening the freezer. Still, he enjoys long walks in nature and taking time to simply stand in the rain. He strives to be a man who is simple and fully content in the Lord, not driven by his own agendas but eager to discover God’s purpose in every person placed in his path. Lee firmly believes that God is good and that He has great things ahead for the future.
