I've been a member here for going on 3 months now, drawn here by the discussion of Federal Vision in the LA Presbytery of the PCA.
As my signature says, I'm a ruling elder in the PCA church in Shreveport, LA.
My wife Becky is a retired Spanish teacher, and we have 4 grown kids, 3 daughters and a son. Our oldest daughter is married with three daughters. Our son is newly married.
I was a lawyer in Texas for 33 year before accepting a sensitive position with a federal agency 2 years ago. I love my work.
In my former law practice, I focused on bankruptcy work and disability cases. I used to do quite a bit of religious-liberty defense work, like defending home-schoolers back in the 80's. That work is discussed in
A Home School History Lesson, by Tim Lambert, President of the Texas Home school Coalition.
I was also a credentialed Texas Mediator and an Arbitrator certified by the Better Business Bureau and National Association of Securities Dealers.
On April 26, 1969, I became a Christian while serving as a young officer in the USAF in Massachusetts. I was taught Calvinism early on and in 1976 discovered the PCA. I served as an elder in the Colleyville PCA until we moved to Abilene in 1983, where there was no PCA work. We worshipped with the OPC for several years while there.
My main interests are systematic theology and church history.
God bless you all who are seeking to serve Him faithfully.
