He pastors a small international church in East Jerusalem and teaches courses at Bethlehem Bible College, where he serves as faculty member, dean of students and board member.

"One day may find me teaching a class at BBC; another conducting a Bible study with church young people; and yet another sharing with pilgrims on Holy Land visits."
