In Dancing with the Big Elephant in the Room, he combined his insights as a former psychotherapist and as a survivor simultaneously of two types of cancer. He co-authored with William Johnson Everett Disciplines in Transformation, modeling linkages among theology, psychology, and sociology, in theory, practice, and loyalty.
