In his own words: "My greatest joy as a worship leader is to see the congregation enter into true intimate worship of God, freely expressing to Him the honor and love He is due without any distractions. What an incredible experience!" "When it comes to Family Ministry, I love to see families and marriages restored. To see the cycle of divorce and pain broken for future generations. I love to see seasoned couples mentor younger couples as to what a healthy marriage can look like." "Some life Scriptures for me are Psalm 34:1-3 and Psalm 51: 10-13. Some hobbies I enjoy are woodworking and camping. I only watch the original CSI. I have had several nick names over the years: Twinkle Toes, SOB(my initials), Obie 1, Obie, SteveO, The greatest American hero, Pop, and Stefan.
"I laugh the hardest when the 5 members of my family get together and we get to be “family.”
"In my 25 years of ministry I have never worked with a more serving and genuine group of believers than those at NorthWest Bible Church… Seriously!! "Now if I can only convert the Aggies to Longhorns, all will be well in the universe."
