I'm a follower of Jesus, father of four and husband to one, a graduate of Biola University and a student at Western Seminary. I earn a living as a corrections deputy in Vancouver, Washington.

I'm interested in the stories of the bible and the way they invoke meaning in ways similar to modern day film. You can find my research and teaching at Logosmadeflesh.com, and this Youtube channel.

Here are some of my posts

• Do Symbols Always Hijack the Facts?
• 3 Overlooked Reasons Jesus "Cleansed" the Temple
• 5 Reasons the Shawshank Redemption is the Greatest Christian Movie Ever
• The Christian Message of Bill Murray's Groundhog Day

And my teaching on Youtube

• Episode 2: The location of Jesus' botched healing in the Gospel of Mark tells us a great deal about its meaning.
• Episode 3: Mark arranges his stories in recognizable patterns to help a strictly listening audience hear and interpret their meaning.
• Episode 4: Repeating a pattern three times is a common storytelling technique and Mark uses it to great effect.

Love to get to know you! Stop on by. :)
