I am a 1967 graduate of The Citadel (Distinguished Military Student, member of the Economic Honor Society, Dean's List), a 1975 graduate of Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary (M.Div., magna cum laude, member of the Phi Alpha Chi academic honor society); I attended the Free University of Amsterdam and completed my History of Dogma there and then received a full scholarship from the Dutch government to transfer to the sister school in Kampen, Holland. In 1979 I graduated from the Theological Seminary of the Reformed Churches of Holland (Drs. with honors in Ethics). My New Testament minor was completed with Herman Ridderbos. I am also a 2001 Ph.D. graduate of Westminster Theological Seminary (Systematic Theology) in Philly with a dissertation on the "unio mystica" in the theology of Dr. Herman Bavinck (1854-1921). I am a former tank commander, and instructor in the US Army Armor School at Ft. Knox, KY. I have been happily married to my childhood sweetheart and best friend, Sally, for 43 years. We have 6 children, one of whom is with the Lord, and 14 wonderful grandchildren.

Pre-Order "Reforming or Conforming"

Amazon.com is now taking pre-orders for the book that Gary L.W. Johnson and I edited. It will be an excellent resource for understanding and critiquing the Emergent Church.
There is a wide variety of contributors and an introduction by David Wells. I also contributed an article on Herman Bavinck's notion of "community," which is integral in the Emergent conversation.

Did you use Randy as a case study? That would be fascinating under a petri dish.

Just kidding. Sort of.
