More Than Magic!
When I got interested in magic at the age of 12, I never dreamed it would be this big a part of my life, but it sure has been fun. I have gotten to go places I never dreamed I would go. I have gotten to do things I never thought I would do. All along the way, I‘ve made lots of friends.
During the 50 plus years that I have been watching magic, studying magic and performing magic, I have seen some amazing things. I have seen spectacular stage illusions; I have seen intimate close-up magic. However, in all my life, I have never seen anything as amazing as God‘s love, forgiveness and grace.
The most amazing thing to me about God’s love is how God showed it by sending His son, Jesus into the world. Jesus, in turn, showed His love by giving His life for me and you that we could have forgiveness for our sins, a meaningful and purposeful life here and now, and a place in heaven when life on earth ends. It is amazing to that God loves us that much, but He does! And all God asks in return is that we love Him and follow Him.
I hope my tricks amaze you. That is always one of my goals as an entertainer. However, more than anything else, I hope you know the amazing love God has for you!
If you would like to know more about how you can become a follower of Jesus, I hope you will contact me through this website. I would love to hear from you!
