Professor, School of Bible and Ministry

I have been teaching for 25 years and have immensely enjoyed the study, teaching, and the students. Beginning this academic year, I am moving into administration as the Interim Provost. I will continue to teach a few classes each year, but will now also oversee all of the academic activities at PBU. It will be an interesting challenge; one that I am looking forward to.

Jesus on the Sea

At the beginning of each semester the entire university gathers together for a convocation. It is a chapel service to dedicate ourselves to the Lord and the tasks that are set before us. This year Dr. Williams spoke on Mark 4 and the story of Jesus asleep in the boat while a storm was raging around him and the disciples. One of the lessons of the story is that following the Lord Jesus may mean that he leads his flock through very difficult and trying times. Even though it may not seem that he is present and concerned for our difficulties, his followers should not fear, but believe in him. The Lord is our shepherd .... We should know that the Jesus that had the power and authority to calm the sea can deliver us out of our troubles - in his time.
