How do you see the Morling values reflected in your role at Morling?
I am excited to be a part of the dedicated team of educators here at Morling because we are wanting to teach in a way that is Christ-centred, biblically faithful, helps students integrate what they believe into how they live and is also transformative. I have just spent fifteen years serving in a very varied role in a hospital setting to the aged, those with acute mental illness, prisoners, new mothers and children with life-threatening illnesses. It has been a very varied ministry. I hope to bring that breadth of experience to bear in my leadership and my teaching to inspire the next generation of chaplains the Lord is raising up for His glory.
