This is a university community in which ideas matter and professors are not afraid to explore tough questions with students. We genuinely believe that honest questions posed by honest and humble scholars results in a deeper understanding of and appreciation for God.

I enjoy reading biographies, spending time with family, enjoying a good cup of coffee with students and colleagues at The Jumping Bean, working with the Center Christian Church family (Fairmount, IN) where I have served as minister for more than 50 years.
