I’m an Anglican evangelical minister from Alabama.
In ordained ministry for more than 20 years, I have been an Anglican bishop since 2022. My ministry has included pastoral work, chaplaincy, writing and editing, teaching, and public speaking.
I served as a Veterans Affairs hospital chaplain in Alabama, Missouri, and Georgia. I have worked as a pastor in Alabama, Indiana, and Texas–where I also was a high school teacher and interim headmaster. I ministered as a chaplain in the U.S. Army, with deployments to Iraq and Afghanistan.
Before the military, I worked in both parish and nonparochial ministry in Alabama. I was frequently engaged in activities surrounding the public expression of Christian faith and the sanctity of human life.
As an Alabama native, my early education was in a rural public school. I earned a Bachelor of Arts from The University of Alabama and a Master of Divinity at Beeson Divinity School (Samford University).
As a Christian committed to the gospel and biblical ethics, I have signed the Nashville Statement on biblical sexuality and The Statement on Social Justice and the Gospel. I support those statements of clarity about biblical teaching.
Medical concerns necessitated my retirement in 2024. I pray for restoration of my health and seek to be content with the Lord’s will.
