Upon receiving his Master of Theology in 1986, he was involved in Christian counseling and further specialized training in methods and principles of counseling. In 1992, he returned to East Tennessee and established Christian Counseling of Knoxville. Since 1992, he has walked alongside hundreds of people as they have tackled the journey of life, providing objective, reasoned guidance grounded in the principles of the Bible.
