Ray's relationship with God began at a very young age. Because of the influence of his parents (Ray & Bev), Ray learned the truth of his own sinfulness and Christ's gift of salvation and came to child-like faith at the age of six.

Also at a young age, Ray became involved in creative arts. Throughout High School, he was involved in numerous plays, musicals, speech competitions and of course, Teens Involved. It was at the Word of Life Bible Institute that Ray came to understand the potential of theatre as a ministry tool. He is still actively involved with the Drama Teams at the Bible Institute.

Ray is a graduate of Liberty University with a degree in Business. He is currently in pursuit of an MBA in Project Management from Ashford University.

Ray is involved in many different facets of the Word of Life International ministry. He writes and directs plays for the Island, Snow Camp and the Bible Institute, coaches actors for Gospel Productions, takes the stage at various times as an actor or emcee. His time in the office is spent writing or coordinating new ministry ventures.
