About Me

I was born and raised in Denver, Colorado, and resided in other states as well including Virginia, Florida, Maryland, and Oklahoma. I now live in Frisco, Texas with my wife (Martha) and our two sons (Jordan and Jackson). I earned my B.A. in Theatre Arts at The University of West Florida in Pensacola (1983). My theological studies were completed at Perkins School of Theology, Southern Methodist University in Dallas, Texas (M.Div., 1990; D.Min.,1996). I also held Graduate Assistantships at Oklahoma University in Norman and Meadows School of The Arts, Southern Methodist University, Dallas. Before retirement, I was a parish minister in several  North Texas communites spanning 35 years. My ministerial travels have included Israel, Greece, The United Kingdom, Mexico, South Korea, Africa, Germany, France, Switzerland, and The Czech Republic.
