What are you reading right now?
Our supper and study group is going through the Gospel of Luke right now. I just finished re-reading Faithful Presence by David Fitch. Starting to read The first 90 days, by Michael Watkins (because it is my first 90 days ? ) Also, I read Ephesians on a regular basis, just because.
If you could pick up a new skill in an instant what would it be?
Playing the guitar as good as my son!
Who’s someone you really admire?
I had the privilege of having breakfast meetings with Henry Schmidt (past president of Mennonite Brethren Biblical Seminary) during my time at the seminary in Fresno, California. I remember well his authenticity and willingness to share the joys and struggles of leadership. He also had a way of celebrating how God’s grace is real and evident in his life.
I also experienced and observed him believing in younger leaders, praying for them, encouraging them, and cheering them along the way.
