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.
