Jeff believes “All Scripture is God-breathed and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, for training in righteousness, so that the man of God may be equipped, having been thoroughly equipped for every good work” (2 Tim. 3:16-17 LSB). His work reflects the conviction that the Bible’s 66 inspired, infallible books are authoritative in all matters of faith and practice for all people for all time.

Jeff has served in various Christian ministry positions in churches and secular roles for over 50 years. Teaching and other church leadership positions have been staples for him since high school, when his church asked him to teach the junior high boys’ Sunday School class. Jeff and a friend taught it, and God hooked him on teaching from that moment forward.

Jeff’s formal education includes a bachelor’s degree in religion and psychology (William Jewell College), a master’s degree in religious education (Midwestern Baptist Theological Seminary), Doctor of Education studies (The Southern Baptist Theological Seminary), Specialist in Education studies (Spalding University), and Ph.D. studies (all but dissertation, Capella University).

Now retired from employee roles, he loves writing, teaching, spending time with his family, mentoring, and serving Christ through his wonderful hometown church in Winchester, Kentucky.

Jeff is excited about the book Next Step Devotions and looks forward to seeing where the Lord leads him next as a disciple eager to make disciples. While he’s written hundreds of articles through the years, Next Step Devotions is his first book. Writing it was a 23-month labor of love. May God use the book, you, Jeff, and this website for his glory.
