Dan is our literature teacher at JECS. He loves helping young men get on their feet through apprenticeships, and is working on a program to do this called Ascend. Dan loves birds and is an avid music-lover. He also plays guitar and drums. Dan was influenced in college by C.S. Lewis’ Mere Christianity, which helped him to develop his critical thinking skills. One of Dan’s favorite people in the Bible is Peter, and he loves the account of Peter in Luke 5. Peter miraculously catches so many fish that the boat starts shaking. Peter falls at Jesus feet, saying, “Depart from me Lord, I am a sinful man.”
