For five years I worked as an editor of textbooks and tradebooks for Christian schools. Currently I am Director of Church Planting Ministries for Baptist International Evangelistic Ministries. In this role I have traveled over 30 times to various parts of Russia and Ukraine. But I still enjoy freelance writing, primarily for Christian publications, and this provides part of my missionary income. In 2007 JourneyForth Books released my second novel, a Christian World War II story titled Gunner's Run. I have also had published over 200 articles and short stories for a variety of publications. These include Breakaway magazine, Brio, Clubhouse, Clubhouse Jr., Horizons, In Touch, Power for Living, Writer's Journal, and others.
