In the early 1980s, I came to Georgia to start Eagle Ranch. This mission has grown well beyond its humble beginnings and what I envisioned as a young man in my 20s. Today, the Ranch is one of the largest programs in the Southeast for boys and girls in crisis with the goal of family restoration and reunification.My motivation for starting the Ranch was twofold: First, that Eagle Ranch would be a tangible expression of God’s goodness and power in this world.
