Current Research Projects
I am writing a book on the power of God's Word in the context of missions to bring spiritual transformation. I am also doing research on how different types of churches are appropriate to different cultural contexts.
Why do you enjoy teaching at SBU?
I enjoy sharing with students about what the Lord has taught me through His Word and years of experience in ministry, both in the U.S. and Japan. I hope that I can challenge them to grow spiritually and to prepare to minister wherever God leads them in the world.
