Christianity--Tips for Ministers/Expert Profile

Expertise

I welcome the opportunity to answer questions regarding Evangelism/Outreach to English-speaking non-Christians in the United States. My answers in this area would be relevant for any Christian denomination. I also have specialized knowledge in the areas of rural ministry, rural Evangelism, race track chaplaincy and auto racing outreach/ministry. I do not have adequate experience to answer questions regarding world missions, cross-cultural outreach, or outreach by any religion other than Christianity.

Experience in the area

I have been a Lutheran pastor (Lutheran Church--Missouri Synod) for six years at St. John's Lutheran Church in Burt, IA. I also serve as the chairman of the Personal Missions Subcommittee of the Lutheran Church--Missouri Synod's Iowa District West and as track chaplain at Algona Raceway.
