If I knew you then,
Rather than later,
Your past would be part of our yesterdays.
If I knew you then,
Rather than later,
Those others would have gone their own ways.
If I knew you then,
Rather than later,
Your life would be filled with less pain.
If I knew you then,
Rather than later,
Ten years would be our love’s reign.
If I knew you then,
Rather than later,
I would have told you how great you would be.
But I know you now,
Rather than then and
I’m so grateful that you’ve chosen me.
And knowing you now,
Rather than then,
Is better than never at all.

I am a Christian in recovery following four decades of active addiction. I have a B.S. in Psychology and an M.A. in Theological Studies from Colorado Christian University, and I will be pursuing an M.A. in Divinity at Denver Seminary in May 2021. My focus is on evangelism and apologetics, doctrinal studies, and working with individuals struggling with mental health and substance abuse issues. To me, there is no "higher power" than Jesus Christ, who broke the chain of addiction in my life. I will be seeking a position as a prison chaplain and/an associate or teaching pastor upon completing my MDiv. I am currently looking for a position at a drug and alcohol rehab, where I intend to work during the three-year master's program at Denver Seminary. I believe in the power in the Name of Jesus to break every chain. I believe counseling must include discipline, and discipling must include counseling.
