Hi my name is Justin Hoke (36), I am the husband of Yatang (35) and the father of Joshua (3) and Peter (3Months). Firstly, however, I am loved by Jesus Christ. As His servant, I am putting this site up in the hopes of finding a call to serve His people. I am confident that God does not need me, but that He delights in using earthen vessels to take glory for Himself.

I believe in expositional preaching and I have been strongly influenced by servant ministers like; John MacArthur, Paul Washer, John Piper, David Platt and Mark Dever.

Thank you for taking the time to look over this site and for your prayers.
