I love to teach about anything in which I'm interested. I am currently doing a
class on Basic Biblical Theology
at my church. During the 1996-97 academic year, I taught
the PBC College Group as we studied
the books of Ephesians and Ezra over the course of the year. I also spent a spring
teaching Device Electronics (aka Physical Electronics) at San
Jose State University.
Upcoming projects include a weekend retreat for the Christian community in Lyman, Wyoming. |

There will be pictures here as soon as we make some more progress. Stay tuned! | |
