Serving
the Church
With 50 years of ministry experience, I help individuals, churches and organizations pursue deep spiritual transformation into Christlikeness for the sake of others.
50 Years of Ministry,
One Lifelong Calling
For five decades, I have served in church leadership roles, from Methodist youth pastor, to church planter, to president of both Vineyard Churches USA and Alpha USA, and finally to my years as an Anglican Bishop. I am also an author and adjunct professor.
All my work—as pastor, teacher, and leader—is rooted in Jesus’ Gospel of the Kingdom. This treasure transcends denominations and partisan lines and calls us to seek God’s reign first, as our pearl of greatest price.
With all this experience under my belt, and feeling lots of creative and relational energy, I feel called to serve the Church by offering my lived wisdom and experience. I want to work toward seeing individuals and communities deeply committed to spiritual formation into Christlikeness and equipped to live Spirit-empowered redemptive lives in a fractured world.
If my vision and values match yours, I would be honored to serve you through preaching, teaching, retreats, seminars, coaching or consulting. See more below.
