 What is Christian Teaching?  What is the role of a Christian Professor?  What, exactly, are Christian colleges, seminaries, and universities trying to do-- or what should they be trying to do? In this intimate discussion from the depths of my convictions forged from a career of thinking, studying, and equipping others about the task of teaching, you'll discover my personal philosophy of Christian teaching. Join me by taking a deep dive into the topic of teaching, in hopes of better understanding what Christian teaching-- and teachers-- are trying to accomplish in institutions of higher education, Christian schools, and in local church congregations.

 [CLICK 4-WAY ARROW AT BOTTOM RIGHT OF VIDEO FOR FULL-SCREEN VIEWING] I've just completed rebuilding my personal CV (academic resume, or Curriculum Vitae). Curriculum Vitae (CV) is a Latin phrase meaning "Course of Life." It refers to the document people in certain professions create to demonstrate their career-long growth in expertise, experience, and education. CVs are unlike resumes. The word "resume" is a 19th century French word meaning "to sum up," meaning that a resume is only supposed to 'summarize' one's life work in the most abbreviated fashion possible, typically a page or two. In the case of higher education and some other fields, CVs are expected to be substantial and detailed. They are supposed to document claims to expertise, experience, and education, providing the reader with proof of each. For this reason, CV's/Expanded Resumes are substantial and usually quite long documents. Here you will find my current CV, one that I built and published personally. It represents an entirely new approach of building such a resource based on the description above. There are many images and live links in the document that provide additional content. I hope you enjoy it. Additional resources are available at www.freddycardoza.com. Contact me if you have any questions or would like to learn more.

 Some have wanted to know the real back story of my life, and how I came to be who I am.  My friend Tom Bruner of Bruner's Break encouraged me to do an intimate interview with him in Studio B Los Angeles.  The result is this unrehearsed, unpolished, but honest look into my life and what makes me tick.  My sincere thanks to Tom Bruner for his friendship and help in creating this special episode.  

Freddy's Story

  Manhood is about standing firm.  On one hand, there are men with bad behavior that is truly 'toxic.'  On the other hand, some of what is promoted as toxic masculinity is nothing more than masculinity itself-- including some examples of biblical manhood.   We live in a time when men must stand up and be counted, rather than shrink into absence and irrelevance.  This includes those times when we face opposition that seeks to impose its will on us in order to marginalize us.  In a day when men are dissed and dismissed, committed Christian men must see through the smoke screen and recognize that society, families, and churches need them to step up.  In this special episode, men learn more from scripture about how to live a convictional life, followed by a stirring call to seek the power of God and the secret of how that happens.  Don't miss this important episode, especially its final charge to be filled with God's divine power.
