Combining more that 12 years of formal theological training with 20 years of teaching, counseling and pastoring experience, I am able to embody the mind of a scholar and the heart of a pastor for my students. Having attended Church of Christ, Presbyterian, Methodist and Catholic schools, I have been provided deep wells of knowledge upon which to draw. I have a passion for teaching and don't allow my student to fail, doing whatever I need to do to help them master the material and/or pass the test.
While my specialty is the interface of theology and psychology, I have taught a number of courses at the university and graduate school levels including Hebrew Bible, New Testament Studies, Letters of Paul, Spirituality, Basics of Pastoral Care, Church History and Religious Studies. In addition, I have mentored numerous graduate students who have gone on to teach and minister to others. Having taught confirmation classes and led mission trips for adolescents has increased my knowledge of maturation and development that assists me in assessing and helping students of all ages.
