Welcome. I’m glad you found your way here.
This is a blog about Scripture, faith, and what it means to follow Jesus in ordinary life — written by a pastor for people who aren’t looking for a theology lecture, just something real and true to hold onto.
If you’re new, here are a few good places to start:
If you’re wrestling with guilt or failure: Start with the Psalm 51 series — [Sin Isn’t Just About What You Did], [Create in Me a Clean Heart], and [What Comes After the Tears]. Three short reads that will walk you through what real repentance looks like and what God does with it.
If you need assurance that God hasn’t given up on you: Read [Assurance, Not Chronology] — one of the most comforting truths in all of Scripture, and one of the most misunderstood.
If you’re tired of feeling like the Christian life isn’t working: Read [The Armor of God] — it’s not about spiritual techniques. It’s about what it means to live in union with Christ.
If you’re in ministry or caring for others: Read [The Hidden Danger in Helping] — an honest look at how pastoral care can drift into dependency, and how to love people well without losing yourself.
If you just want to see what kind of writer I am: Read [As the Victor Stood] — a poem on the resurrection that took me by surprise when I wrote it.
