George primary gift is as a teacher having taught in both Canada and in the US. He has taught secondary school, college and university courses as well as many adult education courses during his teaching career. While he has taught many academic subjects, his greatest delight has been in teaching the Bible which has been his passion for 50 years.
He was ordained in 1985 at Shady Grove Church, Grand Prairie Texas and has consistently sought to serve the body of Christ expounding the Word while pursuing formal and informal training in Bible hermeneutics.
He studied for his Master’s in Linguistics at the University of Texas and took courses in Bible Translation with the Wycliffe Bible Translators from 1977 to 1980 and using that background he taught Scripture five days a week for eleven years, training volunteer prayer counsellors who were serving Christ on the phones for 100 Huntley Street in Canada’s capital, Ottawa. He brings a student’s heart and a desire to encourage the body of Christ to all he teaches.
George presently holds credentials as an ordained minister with the ECA Ministerial Fellowship of Canada where he serves as the executive assistant to it’s president, Dr. Maurizio Mingardi.
