About Trevor: Trevor is about the begin his second year teaching and coaching at LCS. He teaches middle school boys' PE, as well as health and journalism. In addition to being the volleyball coach and the assistant basketball coach, he is the assistant athletic director. He admits this takes up most of his time, but he enjoys just about every second of it. When he has free time, he enjoys reading, hanging out with his wife, and watching or playing any type of sport. He would describe himself as "a laid back guy who is always going to tell you what you need to hear, loyal to the core and willing to serve in any way."  Currently, his family consists of himself, his wife Ashley and their lab/retriever Vandy.  They enjoy lounging around together any chance they get. He and Ashley also enjoy hanging out with their friends and game nights.
What he enjoys about leading a life group: "My greatest joy in leading a life group is just being able to live life with people. I love simply walking with someone as they experience what God is doing in their lives. Whether it be a trial or a celebration, being close enough to partake in the situation brings me great joy."
Encouragement for other life group leaders: "It's ok to feel worn out. We are not superheroes. Let your group members know when you are tired or overwhelmed. I guarantee they will be willing to carry some of your load."
Favorite Bible verse: "James 1:27 is one that is near to my heart because it speaks of God commanding us to care for the orphans. This is something I feel very strongly about."  Also, Matthew 11:28-30 because "it reminds me that I am not supposed to be carrying everything by myself. He has already carried it for me and made my load light."
