    Author: Paul Ward

    I have been in ministry for almost 20 years. A lot of that time has been working directly with youth. I’ve worked with churches of all sizes and in many different roles. Right now I work with youth at a residential treatment facility. I was also a medic in the Air Force. My time in the military was trying at times, but those experiences have helped craft me into the man I am today. In addition to those things, I love to write and play music. I’m a huge baseball fan. I am a husband, father, and friend. Most importantly, I’m a follower of Jesus and I believe that He is in the business of radically transforming this world.
