About the Speaker:
I came to know Christ while I was a boy on our farm. The verse God used was, “All that the Father hath given Me shall come to Me and him that cometh unto Me, I will in no wise cast out.” John 6:37 In high school, my football coach said, “Bill, you should be a teacher/coach.” I completed a B.A. in Science and Physical Education at the University of Northern Iowa and was both. While at college I attended Intervarsity Christian Fellowship and Downing Avenue Gospel Chapel (now Bethany Bible Chapel in Cedar Falls, Iowa). An elder, Howard Dunkerton, took an interest in my spiritual development and encouraged me to teach Sunday School and vocally participate in Breaking of Bread.
I received a National Science Foundation Scholarship to pursue an M.A. in Biology. I worked for a neurosurgeon, Dr. Robert Kyle, a godly and gracious man using his electron microscope for research. Also during that time, Bill Mac Donald, former president of Emmaus, speaker, prolific writer, frequently stayed in our home. He gave me boxes of books, including a wide-margin, loose-leaf study Bible and spent an afternoon showing me how he studied the Word. That led me to establish a serious, daily, Bible study which I continue to this day. I received a Ph.D. in Science Education and School Administration at the University of Iowa along the way.
We moved my wife’s parents and grandmother into our home. Mom was dying of cancer, Dad had severe dementia, and grandmother required daily care. We had our own family as well; Brian followed by sisters, Kim and Misty. During summers, we served at various camps, including Lake Geneva Youth Camp, Kansas Bible Camp, and Storybook. We moved to Colorado Springs to be principal of a very affluent school and attended Westside Christian Fellowship, where an elder, Bill McCotter deepened my love of worship.
I was recruited to lead an economically-challenged school back in Iowa. Keystone Bible Chapel in Omaha, Nebraska, was an encouragement to our family at that time. Later we moved to Clinton, Iowa, where I served as an Assistant Superintendent.. I had the privilege of working with Jim Fullan, and Abe Chocko in establishing Gateway Bible Chapel. I encouraged Jim to become a baseball chaplain and share the Gospel in the dugout! He is now an elder in that church plant.
I was recruited to Ames, Iowa as a public-school administrator. There I was privileged to lead a weekly Bible study for administrators. We also hosted a College and Career fellowship in our home for 15 years. After retirement, I served as Interim President for Emmaus Bible College. We now attend Countryside Bible Chapel where I am an elder and fulltime worker with an itinerant preaching ministry. Carol and I have been married 54 years.
