West planted Grace Bible Church in Houston, TX in 2003 with the vision of making disciples who transform the world. The primary vehicle for making disciples at GBC is our small groups ministry and beyond small group meeting times, West has always loved discipling guys by spending time together outdoors - running, biking, playing spike ball, and more recently, white water kayaking. Hilltop Adventures was born out of GBC's desire to export the disciple making culture that God has blessed our church with over the past 20 years. West and his wife Mary have three children: Will, Rebekah, and Annie Kate.
