A Godly Upbringing Set the Stage
The son of a Baptist pastor, Dennis fell in love with God through dinner table discussion, bedtime prayers and Bible stories learned in Sunday School. This priviledged upbringing exposed him to the truth of God’s Word and buried it deep within his heart.
From an early age he committed his life to Jesus. Now more than 50 years later, he seeks to live faithfully by sharing his knowledge and bringing the power of God’s word to others who want to grow in their faith.
Powerful Studies for Men
Dennis has long been an advocate for teaching men how to make God’s Word the stable foundation for their lives. In 2012 he published his first book, Bible/Man Circle, which introduced men’s group leaders to an innovative new approach to men’s Bible study.
Instead of an academic, intellectual process, Dennis developed an entirely new methodology for men centered around
- Getting out of their head and seeing the DATA on the page.
- Owning the JUDGMENTS that lurk in their hearts.
- Identifying the EMOTIONS which reveal gateways to life application.
In 2020, Dennis published a updated second edition under the title Men in the Bible – Small Group Study Guide.
It doesn’t matter if you are a new Christian or someone who has been a believer for 40 years. Odds are, no one taught you how to study the Bible. Many beloved saints have lived most of their lives without this basic skill.
Making the Bible Understandable
In 2018, after three years of writing and testing in small group settings, he published Study the Bible – Six Easy Steps. In this simple book Dennis tacked head-on the challenges of ordinary believers experience trying to rightly handle God’s Word.
Three years later, in 2021 he release Getting to Know God’s Word – an introduction to the entire Bible through the eyes of the three main characters: God, man and Satan. His goal: to show the Bible as one story of God’s redemption of rebellious people.
In 2024, he retuned to the Six Easy Steps Bible study method and published Study The Bible – Old Testament. This book expanded the six step study method and adapted it to apply specifically to Old Testament histories and stories.
The Great Challenge of our Age
Theological apathy and biblical illiteracy remain the greatest challenges facing Christianity in the West today. Too many believers are happy to read books about the Bible rather than reading God’s inspired word itself. Consequently, Christians haven’t been trained how to think theologically, but have been led into an entertainment culture surrounding their faith.
It’s not enough to sit in church and listen to the preacher. It’s essential that the church today forge a solid and healthy connection to God Himself.
Dennis writes books designed to meet exactly that need. For the Christian who wants to graduate from spiritual milk to spiritual meat, his books provide a blueprint for how to understand the Bible and study it to disover God’s will for our lives.
A Study for the Ages
As a 12 year old, Dennis participated in a study of the Kings of Israel during family’s devotion around the dinner table. This experience shaped him by making the Old Testament seem real and exciting.
This Bible study had such a profound impact that when his own children were growing up, he recreated the same study for them.
Now, after more than 45 years, he has converted that same study into a Book that makes the Old Testament relevant to anyone who loves Scripture.
Following 43 kings and 1 queen, this study unpacks the story of the rulers of Israel. In 17 guided lessons, it provides a comprehensive overview of the good, the wicked and the faithful God who showed amazing patience with their human failing.
Published in 2025, Give Us A King! presents the latest book in Dennis’ mission to help believers understand God’s Word.
Dennis lives in Chandler Arizona. He’s been married for more than 30 years to the love of his life, Karen.
They have 2 beautiful grown daughters and one son in law who live on opposite sides of the country from each other.
Now enjoying the empty nest lifestyle, Dennis & Karen love to travel and experience foreign cultures all over the world.
He serves as a deacon at Christ Church in Gilbert AZ.
All In Commitment!
Whatever he does, Dennis goes all-out. Whether that be for the sake of Jesus Christ or for his favorite football team.
Born outside of Oakland CA, Dennis has maintained a lifelong fandom for the Las Vegas Raiders. Regardless of what city they may call home, Dennis is an extreme fan with a no-holds-barred commitment to his favorite team!
Many people find this extreme hobby shocking in the face of such a serious writing career. However, those who know him best just shake their heads and say, “Dennis doesn’t hold back.”
This same intensity and commitment can be found in every book and work book that Dennis writes. He is all-in for you and for your learning and spiritual growth.
