my piece of America

my piece of America July 4, 2011

This is my wife Lisa. Talk about an independent spirit from the deep south of Alabama! We met at Central Bible College in Springfield, Missouri. I went down there from Canada to study religious music. I switched to theology after I met her. Long story. We rapidly fell in love and got married in 1980. Right after we were married we moved to Boston were I studied for my theology masters at Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary under the New Testament scholar Dr. Gordon Fee. Then we went to McGill University in Montreal where I got another masters in Religious Studies. Right after that we went into the ministry.

It’s been a ride! A bumpy one. But one we’ve travelled together. I’m not saying it was easy. But she makes it easier. Even in this present spiritual winter, we remain companions of the depths.

I love you American woman!
