Who are chuck and betsy?
samford bulldogs
Chuck and Betsy Stokes met at Samford University in Birmingham, Alabama as freshmen and married four years later, just two weeks after graduation. Betsy began her career in editing at Southern Living, while Chuck earned a Masters of Divinity from Beeson Divinity School at Samford.
UT Longhorns
Chuck pursued his PhD in sociology at the University of Texas at Austin, while Betsy pursued freelance writing and editing, as well as their two new little ones. (Those little ones are now young adults!)
Marriage Mentors, Friendship facilitators
In Austin, thanks to the Center for Relational Care (www.relationalcare.org), Chuck and Betsy learned the amazing skills of Intimacy Theory, a counseling approach developed by Dr. David Ferguson and Dr. Bruce Walker.
engaging the culture with science and reason
Today, Chuck is teaching at Samford (back to our beloved alma mater) as a professor of sociology, specializing in how family practices impact faith formation, the influence of popular media, and the formation (and failure or success) of romantic relationships. Betsy works as senior editor for CanaVox, a Princeton-based think tank that cheers for marriage and sexual integrity using social science, human physiology, and Natural Law philosophy.
