What does being the a V.P. and Dean at ORU mean to you?
ORU for me is really the coming together of the desire of my heart and God's call on my life. It is not just any college; the students are raised up to hear God's call and do the work of the Lord.

What does Homecoming mean to you?
The alumni are going out and fulfilling the calling of this university. [Homecoming] is a very special time of year. It's always a treat to get to see the alumni back on campus and they get to reunite and connect with the University.
