BGU’s emphasis on personal transformation and community impact through values, work, and ministry has been deeply formative.

My dissertation was birthed out of helping congregations in urban cities find strategies in the merging process in order to have a long-term impact for the congregations.

I see how academia and spiritual formation, when united as a focus, transform each student, encouraging them towards bringing flourishing to God’s beautiful creation.
