About the Prof



My Teaching Style: I very much welcome questions and interaction. I hold a very high view of Scripture, but realize that dedicated, thoughtful Christians hold different views. With controversial issues, I fairly explain each view, their pros and cons, and leave it up to the student to decide their own position. To the best of my ability, I offer well-researched, evidence- based presentations.
