Professor
CdViA/
a I am a professor and the Academic Dean of Word of Life Bible Institute. As professor I teach various courses so that no student in New York, Florida or Ontario will escape my kind ministrations every year! As Academic Dean I oversee the scheduling of the Guest Lecturers in New York,
Florida and Owen Sound, Ontario. The role of Academic Dean also oversees all aspects of the academic program from accreditation to course selection and record keeping including the guidance of all the personnel necessary to accomplish these tasks. In addition, I speak for Word of Life in local churches and in the camp ministry when needed. I also edit and write for the Word of Life Quiet Time commentary. I came to know the Lord at Word of Life Inn as a seven-year-old summer camper. My family came back every summer to be refreshed by the Word of Life experience. In high school I was encouraged in a Word of Life Bible Club in my local church. Thinking that I would become an engineer/contractor like my father, I attended Word of Life Bible Institute to get grounded in the Bible before going to engineering school. During the course of that year I went from wanting to be a contractor, to wanting to be a missionary pilot, to wanting to be a missionary to Israel, to not knowing what I wanted to be, but realizing I needed more training. I transferred to Lancaster Bible College where I met and married my wife, Susie. After three years at seminary the position opened up here at Word of Life Bible Institute. Thirty-two years later (and six children, five sons-in-law, nine grandchildren, three moves and lots of memories!) we are still impressed with the ministry opportunity and, Lord willing, hope to be ministering full time with Word of Life Bible Institute until the class of 2024!
