Who I Am

Hey there, I’m Andrew! I’m a husband, dad, author, and pastor living with my family in the Thumb of Michigan. I serve as Senior Pastor at Snover Heritage Church and also write and share encouragement online through Emberfaith. At the heart of everything I do is a passion for faith, storytelling, and community.

My Professional Life

Before stepping into pastoral ministry, I spent more than 15 years leading service-based businesses. Those years taught me a lot about people, leadership, and the value of relationships. Today, I carry those lessons with me in ministry—helping others grow in faith and find purpose in everyday life.

What I'm About

Through Emberfaith and pastoral work, my mission is pretty simple: point people to Jesus. Whether that’s sharing scripture, writing devotionals, or simply walking with people through life, I believe faith is meant to be lived out in real and practical ways.

Life at Home

When I’m not writing or serving at church, life is happily chaotic thanks to our two young kids. They’re full of energy, excitement, curiosity—and just enough sass to keep us on our toes. My wife and I wouldn’t trade it for anything (though a little more sleep would be nice). Family life keeps me grounded, gives me plenty of stories to tell, and reminds me daily of God’s goodness in the small, everyday moments.
