I am a sixty-something husband of one, father of four, and follower of Jesus. I studied advertising/marketing (UT/Austin) and theology (MDiv, Denver Seminary), and served in church and ministry for ten years. In 1994 my wife Sally (also an author) and I started Whole Heart Ministries, a nonprofit Christian ministry to help parents raise wholehearted Christian children. We conceive, write, and publish books and resources, offer annual hotel conferences for mothers, train women in small group leadership, and connect with parents online. As an author, my books focus mostly on biblical topics related to the Christian family. I'm a conceptual creative (INTJ) perpetually caught in the "so many projects, so little time" jetstream of the writing life. I'm also a wannabe illustrated children's book writer, dabbler in short fiction, singer-songwriter (guitar), mobile app conceptualist, and analog game creativator.
