We met at Regent University while earning our Master’s Degrees in Public Policy. Marrying shortly after graduation, we moved to Colorado to work at Focus on the Family. Steve grew up in Washington, NC and Candice grew up in Toledo, OH and so the West was a great place to help us leave and cleave.
We founded Boundless.org webzine for Focus in 1998. Candice served as the Boundless editor for four years until leaving in 2002 to be a full-time mom, doing a little freelance writing and editing on the side. Candice is the author of Get Married: What Women Can Do to Help It Happen. Together we wrote Start Your Family: Inspiration for Having Babies. Steve is a founding partner of Marry Well.org, a matching service for singles who are serious about getting married for God's glory.
Our children are Harrison, Zoe, Churchill and Teddy. Sometimes they're as sweet, quiet and well-mannered as they appear in posed photos. More often, they're the fun-loving bunch pictured above.
