Back during our days in Georgia I was privileged to serve as the campaign manager for State Senator John Douglas. He had previously served in the Georgia House of Representatives; I managed his first campaign for the State Senate.

I've encouraged him to share his vision at LifePoint and to ask for helpers.It's exciting to see new dreams and visions spring up!
