Things may move slow in the academic world, but I continue to move at a pace relative to the urgency of the moment looking forward to the time when the academic world can catch up.

About

ABOUT

President Photo.JPG

Over 13 years of service as a college president at two colleges - each of which faced serious fiscal problems. At each institution, we  employed strategies and programs that greatly increased enrollment and fundraising; improved their financial condition - and elevated each school to university status. 

I'm also a husband, a father, a son, a friend, a lawyer, a pastor, a storyteller, an observer; a Life Group leader; a member of the Governor's cabinet, a chair of a state's tax reform effort, a college professor, an editor, an actor (film and stage), a judge, a basketball coach, a stage musical producer, a candidate for public office (0 for 3), a camp director, Chief of the Big Foot Tribe . . . and a man who has been so blessed to have lived such an abundant and blessed life!

STORYTELLING

A wise friend of mine once told me to always remember that “facts tell, but stories sell.” Jesus told parables to bring people to God. Plato observed that: “Those who tell stories, rule society.”  I believe in the transformative power of storytelling to impact society. As such, through our development company, Brentwood Avenue Entertainment, we present family and faith-friendly film and stage productions that seek to inspire, uplift, and provoke positive change in the world through captivating narratives and memorable characters.
