Phillip O’Reilly wanted to be a police officer. The LORD nixed that idea. He ended up completing a short stint at Denver Seminary – as he jokes, "We mutually agreed six classes were enough." He later earned an MA in Political Science and a Ph.D. in Economics from CU, Boulder. He has taught college at the U.S. Air Force Academy, Liberty University, and, most recently, at the Universidad de Peru. Phillip and his wife, Laura, have ten kids and live in eastern Oregon with their youngest four.
