About
Hi! I’m Eli—follower of Jesus, husband, dad, and longtime youth minister.I’ve spent over a decade in ministry, walking with students and families in both Cincinnati and Barberton, Ohio. My calling has always been to help people grow in their relationship with Christ—not just in knowledge, but in everyday faithfulness.I’ve been blessed with formal training in ministry and biblical studies, which has shaped how I teach and communicate God’s Word. But more than that, I’ve learned through real-life conversations, late-night prayers, and watching God move in ordinary moments.I live in Barberton with my wife and our daughter. We’re rooted here—committed to the Church, our community, and helping others take faithful steps with Jesus, one day at a time.
