St. George's Scholar
On February 24, 2008, I was appointed "St. George's Scholar" at St.
George's Anglican Church (Anglican Network in Canada). On October 6,
2008, I was licensed as a priest in the Anglican Network in Canada, a member of the Anglican Church in North America, serving at St. George's.

Witness, St. George's magazine, contains my regular column "Ask the St. George's Scholar" 
Previous columns in "Witness" deal with the following questions:
For those who still ask "Why have you made this decision?", some other voices respond ...
 Metropolitan Hilarion: "The dialogue with liberal Anglicans is over"
"Liberal tendencies in Protestant and Anglican communities present a
challenge to those Christians and churches that have remained faithful
to
Gospel principles in doctrine, church order and morality. ... Our
Church must sever its relations with those churches and communities
that trample on the principles of Christian ethics and traditional
morals. Here we uphold a firm stand based on Holy Scripture." Read more: HERE.
 Philip Rieff: Protestant liberalism and the "deathworks"
"Churchly Protestantism ... [has
broken] up into small, charismatically led, mental health cults engaged
in the testing of spiritual tonics for failing nerves. ... The theology
of the Creative Person ... forms the central pillar of the huge and
variegated growth we know today as Protestant theology." (The Triumph of the Therapeutic: Uses of Faith after Freud ,
109, 114)

Previous ministry
From 1976-1981, I worked as a French-language counselor for an evangelistic ministry in Toronto.
From
1981-1986, I taught in a variety of Evangelical churches in the region
of Barcelona, Spain and sought ways to support education within Spanish Evangelical churches. (That work is now being continued under the excellent leadership of Dr. Pedro Zamora, director of SEUT.)
In 1987, I was ordained a deacon
in Christ's Holy Catholic Church on the feast of Pentecost (St. James
Anglican Church, Kingston, Ontario), and in 1988 I was ordained a priest on Palm Sunday (Cathedral Church of St. George, Kingston, Ontario).
