Brief Vita
I love working with congregations and with the people who care for them. Religious organizations offer something very precious that cannot be found in the secular world. As a consultant to churches of many denominations, I have seen countless lives changed for the better as people have found a strong faith for themselves and their families.

My work is with Mainline congregations, judicatories, and denominations. I collaborate with a wide range of clergy, lay leaders, writers, scholars, and denominational officials in serving my clients.

I've written four books. Creating Congregations of Generous People is an Alban Institute best-selling title.  Beyond the Collection Plate was published by Abingdon Press.  The Almost Church was published by Jenkin Lloyd Jones Press.  Living a Call: Ministers and Congregations Together is a collection of essays by younger ministers whose views hold promise for the future. These books are in the Recommended Books section of this website.

I hold a Master's Degree from Harvard University, and have been a visiting lecturer or speaker at the Vancouver School of Theology in British Columbia; the Episcopal Divinity School in Cambridge, MA; and the College of Preachers at Washington National Cathedral.
