Things that fascinate me: Our skin fascinates me. It is strong, sensitive, pliable, durable, etc. I am amazed at how a cut heals itself. Also, when you cut your finger, how does your fingerprint regenerate? I could continue…

Life-changing moment: Accepting Jesus into my life, followed by when I married Dana and when each of our three children were born.
Hidden talent: I can play the piano and the trumpet.
Favorite book: That is an impossible question because I love to read, and often, my favorite book is the book I am currently reading. But if I had to pick a book besides the Bible that has impacted my life, it would be In the Name of Jesus by Henri Nouwen.
In my spare time I… love to play golf but I wish I were better at it.
Favorite TV show: Seinfeld, The Office, Blue Bloods.
