PRMN-629 Biblical Storytelling

PRMN-611 Coaching Skills for Today’s Leaders

“My approach to teaching is constantly being fine-tuned in the academic setting as well as in pastoral ministry, the mission field, coaching, and life. I find it fascinating how the Bible is often used by many to defend actions. I’ve had a husband defend his right to abuse his wife because Genesis 3:16 instructs husbands to ‘rule over’ their wives. I’ve had parents ask me how far they should go in disciplining their children because Proverbs 13:24 warns: ‘Spare the rod, spoil the child.’ I love teaching and preaching from the hard texts of the Bible as I challenge my students to do the research; look at the historical, literary and theological contexts of the Bible as well as the context they have been asked to minister to; and trust the guidance of the Holy Spirit.”
