and saves those who are crushed in spirit.

one thing people don't know about me
I am a certified technical architect who builds CRM systems for businesses — something many wouldn’t guess and I use these skills to serve the church as the Media Production Manager, helping Tenerife Family Church grow and reach more people through media.
people who inspire me
My true inspiration is, above all, Jesus Christ. Through my walk with Him, I have also found inspiration in biblical figures such as Daniel, Isaiah, Jeremiah, Elijah, and King Josiah of Judah.
Alongside them, I have been guided and strengthened by the teaching and lives of Christians such as Derek Prince amd Charles Spurgeon.
MORE ABOUT ME
In my spiritual life, I believe deeply in being led by the Holy Spirit rather than simply following religious rituals. My faith is about a real, living relationship with Jesus and recognizing that our true struggles are not against flesh and blood, as spoken about in Ephesians 6:12.
Beyond this, I’m a proud parent of two wonderful children — a 7-year-old daughter and a 5-year-old son — who are both members of our church family.
