On my iPod: I gave my iPod to my daughter a couple of years ago. She needed it more than I did. So, that's what Dad's do. If I had one it would contain tunes by Bruce Cockburn, Richard Bona, Mike Stern, and lots of African praise & worship music. Also, classical recordings by Saint Martins In The Field.

My favorite books: A fairly long list of titles is on the Reading Resources page of the Worshp Arts Ministries link on this site. Currently I'm finishing The Great Omission by Dallas Willard / The Book Of Psalms by Robert Alter. Others of interest would be works by John Piper and Eugene Peterson.

During free time, I: Read, and ponder nature --- by being out in it / And take mini-road-trips to see family, friends and places of interest.

One favorite memory: Looking at the African sky at night for the first time!

Ministry history: I served as a worship leader for approximately 15 years prior to becoming worship pastor at S.A. almost 14 yers ago. I have been a psalmist for 30 years writing songs for Christian artists as well as praise & worship for use in corporate services. I spent two years at Elim Bible Institite studing Bible and missions. And, I have 5 certificates of study from the Institute For Worship Studies having been mentored by Professor Robert Webber. I am also a team member of Reconciliation Ministries International under the leadership of Bishop Joseph Garlington.

Originally from: It's reported that I was born in Fayetteville TN, but that's of some inner-planetary debate.
