I am a pastor in the Presbyterian Church (U.S.A.), currently serving in a medium-sized suburban congregation in California. I was an English major at the University of Colorado, have a Master of Divinity degree from Austin Presbyterian Theological Seminary, and am part of a Doctor of Ministry program (focused on missional leadership) at Fuller Theological Seminary. I have a wife and two young children. Members of my faith-community ask challenging theological questions (which I appreciate); but the toughest theological questions come from my children.
