Articles Currently Online
I've written hundreds of essays and articles on a wide variety of topics (a portion of which appear on this site). My interests include Biblical and Practical theology, education and cultural issues. My articles have been published in several regional and local periodicals. At one time I also produced a regular humor column for The Adams County Record in Council Idaho.
