Before coaching at Asbury, Raven served as the assistant baseball coach from 1995-1998 at West Jessamine High School in Nicholasville, KY. Prior, Raven attended Asbury Theological Seminary and served as a youth pastor from 1991-1995 for Arrow Highway Wesleyan Church.

At the semi-professional level, Raven spent a season playing on a team in Azusa, CA. Raven played second baseman for the Cougars at Azusa Pacific University in California. Coach Raven is filled with passion for God and baseball and he enjoys intertwining the two.

"Beyond God and family, my two passions are Christian discipleship and baseball. I felt led to disciple a group of players through the avenue of baseball," said Raven. "I am drawn to Trinity because of their passion for their players' lives and Christian growth, yet with a desire to excel on the field. I am confident that with God's help I can continue lead the Trinity baseball team to the goals of spiritual growth and competitive quality of play."
