Something about me
I am a part-time local pastor serving Wesley Chapel United Methodist Church and a participant in the Indiana Conference's Wesleyan ConneXion. I teach business communication at Indiana University in the Kelley School of Business.
I also blog at Luc means light and contribute to The View from Here blog at Next Step Evangelism.
My wife, Lisa, and I have been married 23.5 years. Luc, 8, lives with us. Zach, 22, and JillAnn, 18, are off at college much too soon for my liking.

Words from Wesley
The doctrine of original sin is surely more humbling to man than the opposite: And I know not what honour we can pay to God, if we think man came out of His hands in the condition wherein he is now.
— John Wesley

Greetings John
Thanks so very much for yout posts, questions and cont’d sharing of our Methodist ways. I often had thought what John Wesley would say if asked if we are in accordance to what he dreamed or visioned ?
What comes to my mind now would to hear John Wesley say ” be the best Methodidt you know how to be. ” I feel pretty good about that.
A healthy productive 2012 to you & yours.
Bob
