I am getting ready to begin a discussion at my church about whether or not we should have GKGW tapes in the church library. I am looking for specific information on Ezzo's education. I have read many places that he has a hs diploma, and that his MA has much credit given for life experience. Is there anyplace I can find specific information on his background? I want to be well informed when I start all this. I have looked at ezzo.info, but can't find specific data.

TIA,

Allison

From the timeline:
http://ezzo.info/Timeline/timeline1.htm

Fall of 1966 - Summer of 1969 -- Gary Ezzo took several classes at Mohawk Valley Community College but did not get an AA degree.

1983 – Ezzo entered Talbot School of Theology full time to pursue a Master of Arts in Ministry degree in a program designed for candidates with ministry experience rather than the traditional 4-year degree.

1985 – Ezzo listed a degree he did not earn, even specifying a major and a grade point average, on an employment application after being given a position at Grace Community Church. Source "Unprepared to Teach Parenting", Christianity Today, November 13, 2000

1985 -- Ezzo graduated from Talbot with a Master of Arts in Ministry

The timeline is an amazing resource, with many links to supporting documentation. This is what I found on his educational background.

Hope this helps!
