About

 

I like reading and sharing stories.  I share some on this website.

I grew up in Kansas City, but have lived several places - Kansas, Utah, Germany, New York City, Montana - Colorado since 1996.

I am a 5th great-grandson of Thomas Jefferson and have been involved in racial reconciliation.

BA  in Philosophy from the University of Colorado - Boulder, emphasis on existentialism (Sartre) with a dual minor in German and History.

Converted to Christianity while on winter holiday in St. Moritz, Switzerland in February 1985.

We are a missionary family. I also work in Information Technology.

Co-founder of The Monticello Community

Mass shooting at a church in 2007. Two of our daughters died and I was severely wounded.

I enjoy sitting in my recliner with a good book in my lap, preferably academic theology.
