| Why
have you responded to the call to fulfill your role in the magazine? |
|
I am called by God to both
study and write. I am a student of Human Behavior and am committed
to the church. I believe that the genius of the Wesleyan epistemology,
with its quadrilateral sources make the study of the Social Sciences
respected and informative for the life of the church. |
