The Cadence Way
We Stay
In a transient and mobile military community, Cadence offers stability, strength, and consistency over the long haul to each installation we serve.
We Serve
Cadence enjoys favor with the military community and has a proven reputation of serving military personnel and families in general, and chaplains in particular.
We Shape
Cadence staff are experts in creating and sustaining biblical, life-changing fellowships within the military community.
We Send
Cadence ministries are constantly releasing military people transformed by Christ to live for Him wherever He sends them.
We Strive
Military ministry is all Cadence does. It is our one focus, passion, and joy. Cadence gives its all to the global military communities we serve.
While I was in grade school and my dad was stationed in Germany, we attended the house on Friday nights, and I witnessed my grandparents in action: serving and blessing others while opening up their large home with warm hospitality, good food, laughter, and Bible study. For many, including me, it was a place where we encountered God—not an abstract, far-off god, but a real, personal, loving, Savior God who orchestrates real-deal transformation and abundant life.”

From the President
This old grainy photo is of me in 1987 proclaiming, “Nothing can fill your life like Jesus Christ!”
I was speaking at a rally for military teenagers hosted by Malachi Ministries. Joyce and I were newly married and serving our first term with OCSC/Cadence in Baumholder, Germany. We would serve with Malachi (now Cadence Student Ministries) in Germany until 1995 when God unexpectedly called us to the mission headquarters in Colorado for me to serve as the fourth President of Cadence International.
This July 4th I will celebrate 30 years of being the President of Cadence International, and on July 11th I will pass the baton to Dave Hutchings who will become the fifth President of this amazing organization. Dave currently serves as our VP for Field Ministries, and he and I have worked closely together in leadership for the past three years. I am excited for the future of Cadence and all that God has in store for this ministry under Dave’s leadership.
