Following graduation from Dallas Theological Seminary in 1966, along with my wife Lindie, we served as missionaries in Japan, Singapore and on the home staff of OMF International with a focus on leadership development with OMF personnel and consulting with other ministries until our retirement in 2010. I earned a doctorate in missiology from Trinity Evangelical Divinity School in 1983. Currently I serve as a consultant and ministry coach with OMF leaders and potential missionary candidates. We have three children and seven grandchildren and now one great grandchild. We live in Heritage Village in Southbury and have been a part of St. Paul’s since 2019.
