After completing degrees at SFU and Regent College, Randy and his wife Marcy moved to Vancouver Island. Twelve years ago, he and his friends planted The Place Community, a church birthed out of the 'missional/ emerging' conversation. While Randy perceives himself as a somewhat reluctant leader, he feels privileged to pastor a creative and passionate grassroots community. He has incredible fondness for young leaders, and desires to see them mentored relationally, developed theologically and engaged socially.

He believes that each person is born with a life mission or purpose and that real fulfillment comes as we discover and embrace that mission. He feels that God’s invitation to know him and then to be a person who brings life to others, a life infused with the gospel, is central to this mission. He has spent almost thirty years inviting people to discover and embrace their life mission and in mentoring and coaching merging leaders, serving in a wide variety of contexts.
