2004: I live in New Haven
CT and work at Yale Divinity School as Director of Supervised
Ministries (aka field education). That means I oversee students'
internships as part of their study for the ministry. I went
to Yale Divinity School myself for my Master of Divinity degree
and was ordained in the United Church of Christ in 1987. After
serving for two years as an associate pastor in Amherst, MA,
I returned to Yale once again to study for the PhD. I received
my doctorate from the Ethics program of the Religious Studies
Department at Yale in 2000. I wrote a dissertation on sexual
ethics which was later published by The Pilgrim Press as Constructing
the Erotic: Sexual Ethics and Adolescent Girls (2002).
I moved back home to Oberlin for two years (1996-98) and taught
in the Religion Department at Oberlin College prior to assuming
my current position in 1998. This year I am working 4/5 time
and trying to write a book on ministry ethics. Distractions
come in the form of fixing up my 1900 house, community organizing
in New Haven, church activities, and volunteering for a folk
music concert society.
