Bio
Craig Morton, M. Div., Ed.D.
Mark's curious and keen mind enable him to bring significant academic insights to the people with whom he works. I had the pleasure of working with Mark for four years. I witnessed his ability to interact with theologically trained academics, ministers, and lay people. Regardless of the educational background of these people, Mark has continually shown himself capable of explaining and sharing profound insights, complex processes, and challenging ideas. While this may read as if he is a capable communicator, and he is, it more that he cares for the people around him with the heart of a pastor, respecting the unique opportunities to connect with the people he encounters and to create meaning together..
