The Voice: Contributors

Want to know more about the guys who contribute to The Voice? Here you go.

Sean Rice (No Relation to Ryan)
Sean is a volunteer youth worker, a student at Briercrest College in Canada, and an amazing Super Smash Bros gamer. He was first exposed to Reformed theology mid-way through high school and subsequently adopted it in the weeks leading up to his first year of college. In his spare time he likes to ride bike trails, create poetry, read stuff by early Church Fathers, do tricks on diving boards, and read theology texts. November 20th, 2011 will mark his 8th year as a follower of Christ. He is a devoted husband to Kendra; son of Murray and Judy; brother to Caitlin and Amber; and member of First Baptist Church.

Thomas Booher
Thomas is a Calvinist Christian and currently attends a Presbyterian (PCA) church in North Carolina, USA, though he has yet to develop his convictions regarding infant baptism and eschatology. After attending a Christian school all his life, he came to at last discover the doctrines of grace as a freshman in college, which set his life in a new direction. As of August 2011, he will be a student at Reformation Bible College at Ligionier Academy in Sanford, Florida, as a part of the inaugural class. When Thomas isn't studying or writing about theology and apologetics, he spends his time writing fiction, following in the steps of his father who authored The Oerken Leaves. Thomas also blogs at The Tulip-Driven Life.

Ryan Rice (No relation to Sean)
Ryan is a native of Oklahoma City and was introduced to reformed theology as a young worship leader. His passions include his family; his wife Joni, and his two sons Braeden and Charlie. He was accepted to the Master of Divinity Program at Southwestern Baptist Theological Seminary in Ft. Worth, TX, but felt the Lord lead him away from that area of academia for the time being. He currently serves as an Information Technology employee for the Chickasaw Nation in Ada, OK and resides in Pauls Valley, OK. His passion is to see sinners fall in love with Jesus Christ through the unchanging power of the Gospel, that all who would receive would find power for this life, and hope for Heaven.

Seth C.
Seth is a Reformed Christ-follower from the southeast Bible belt. He is a psychology graduate on a sabbatical from further education, but he intends to move on to a grad program in clinical psychology sometime in the near future. He is very deeply interested in social connectedness between people and what Scripture reveals about psychological and social issues. Seth is also an ardent lover of Victorian literature and classic black-and-white films. He's still grappling with how his personal story fits into God's larger metanarrative. Finally, Seth is crazy about shalom theology; he loves a story that has a happy ending, especially knowing it is our story.

Nic Laughter
Nic is a sinner, but also a chosen child of God, accepted into God's kingdom through His grace alone. Nic loves Jesus and want to serve Him with all of his life; he is going to be a 3rd year student of Theology and Ministry at Briercrest College and Seminary this coming year, and will also be serving in his 3rd year in ministry. Nic converted from Atheism to Christianity when he was 19 years old and since then has been ever-increasing in his knowledge of the greatness of God and of his own depravity. When he's not busy with school, he also loves playing guitar, participating in frisbee golf and eating burritos. His own personal blog can be found (or at least used to be found) at http://ifdeusvult.blogspot.com/.

Laura Kovar
Laura is a vegan, and enjoys cooking and baking. She is also in love with camping and Star Trek. She became a Christian in August 2007 at a King James Only church in Montreal, Quebec, and became convinced of the Holy Spirit's presence in her life. However, she was also indoctrinated to believe the KJV was God's only inspired word, and set out on a journey to find the truth. Though she is still unsure about some things, she is assured of God's grace and eternal salvation. She is currently studying Linguistics at Briercrest, with minors in Biblical Studies and Biblical Languages. She has been bought with a great price, and yearns to serve God with every ounce of herself, sharing His amazing grace with those who would hear it.
