At this time, he came into contact with researchers from the University of Chicago. Mike and Mo move to Chicago in 1986. In 1989, Mike obtained a Ph.D. in Psychological Measurement from the University of Chicago, and took up a research and teaching position at that University. In early 1996, a core group, including Mo and Mike, were moved to launch an inner-city and campus ministry, based in Hyde Park, Chicago, in close proximity to the University of Chicago city campus. This has become the Active Bible Church of God .
Close cooperation continues between the two entirely independent churches.
Apart from his volunteer pastoral responsibilities, Mike continues to research and teach at the University of Chicago. He has well over 100 publications and conference papers in psychological measurement. Every single one of us has something special to contribute. Mo and I are starting to put our talents to good use as Jesus directs. We don't need your financial support.
