Being a pastor’s kid, Vincent possesses a unique insight into the concerns of leadership and has great compassion for the heart of shepherds. He preaches truth with an anointed passion—he connects with the congregation. Through his creative props, the truth penetrates beyond the surface to the heart. He takes the complicated and makes it simple to understand.

Comments from friends and family


I have known Vincent for over 24 years. His teaching is always a fresh “now” word that comes through hours of study and time hearing from the Lord. He’s not just preaching at you—he is bringing his life’s successes and failures into practical application for our lives.
—Jay & Heather W., Kenner Louisiana

This “tangible teaching” leaves us with visible images, a so-called “touch point” for our minds and imaginations to grasp. This makes it easier for us to capture and remember the message.
—Lynne C., House Springs, Missouri

Both practical and refreshing, Vincent uses the common sense, no-nonsense approach of Jesus. He incorporates real biblical principles and visual props to reinforce and drive home the points of the lesson. All this combines to create a simple, life-changing message that’s unforgettable.

Vincent’s character exemplifies what a godly husband and father is all about. Through his ministry here as well as the opportunities I have had to hear him exhort our staff, and share the Word on a personal level, his passion to share the Gospel is unsurpassed.

Vincent is a man after God’s own heart. I like to call him “Mr. Illustration.” His approach to preaching the Gospel is a fresh, new innovative way o presenting God’s Word.
