About

I am an ordained deacon in the Rocky Mountain Conference of The United Methodist Church. I currently serve as editor of Alive Now magazine and as deacon at Edgehill United Methodist Church. I received my Master of Divinity from Vanderbilt Divinity School in Nashville, Tennessee. I grew up in Oklahoma and enjoy liturgy, music, and photography. I’ve written two Advent books —  Child of the Light (Upper Room, 2006) and The Uncluttered Heart (Upper Room, 2009). You’ll find my writing in various places, including Alive Now magazine, The Upper Room Disciplines, and two volumes of The Storyteller’s Companions to the Bible, and upperroom.org.
