Coffee with Jim Peak

Jim Peak is a VP and the CFO at The Baptist Theological Seminary
at Richmond. He embodies a wonderful confluence of qualities. He
is a pastor. He has his PhD. He is an accomplished musician. The
tone of his natural voice has a gentleness with almost no edges.
During our interview it was hard not to think about how easily
his voice would be able blend, as desired, in most choral
performances or how very pastoral he could be in
a counseling situations when hard things need to be
said without provoking aggravation. And yet somehow it surprises
no one that Jim is the person who is occasionally characterized
as "the muscle" or "the enforcer" at the Baptist Theological
Seminary at Richmond.
