On April 30, 2019, I retired as the General Minister of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) In Kentucky. I live in Nonesuch, Kentucky with my spouse, Nora, our two golden retrievers, Sawyer and Deacon, and nine chickens. We have four adult children, a son-in-law, three beautiful granddaughters and one handsome grandson who live in the greater Lexington, KY area.
In April of 2019, I accepted a call to be the part-time Director of Disciples Men for Disciples Home Missions of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) in the US and Canada. On June 16th, I started as the interim minister at Hodgenville Christian Church in Hodgenville, KY. Now I am blessed to serve as their pastor.
I am a spiritual director, an organic gardener, committed to trying to live a more sustainable lifestyle as a good steward of God's creation, a woodworker and an avid reader. I am a graduate of Purdue University (B.S. - Environmental Health) and Christian Theological Seminary (M.Div).
