Hi there! I’m a father, husband, writer, seminarian, and avid reader.
Writing is my passion, not my profession—by day, I’m a Preconstruction Manager at Amazon, which means I travel a lot! (In the past three weeks alone, I’ve been to Cleveland, North Carolina, Chicago, and Houston.)
I see writing as more than just a hobby—it's my ministry. It’s how I express my love for God and neighbor, how I engage in discipleship, and how I hope to make a lasting impact, one reader at a time.
I’m also a bit of a theology nerd. I love diving deep into big questions about God, the Bible, culture, right and wrong, and how to develop a Christian worldview in today’s world. I hold a Master of Theological Studies (MTS) from Gateway Seminary, and I’m currently pursuing my Master of Divinity (MDiv) there as well (did I mention I love theology?). I look forward to sharing insights from my seminary journey with you—there’s more to learn in those classes than you’d think!
Most of all, I’m excited about building a community of passionate readers who are willing to engage with meaningful content, think critically, and allow it to spiritually shape them. Let’s grow together on this journey of faith and exploration.
What I write about?
I write essays, research and reflection papers, news and opinion articles, devotionals, and critical analysis of current events. You’ll also find biblical and theological critiques of modern sociocultural movements that impact the church.
My writing style is direct and to the point—I’m not interested in producing ivory-tower publications. I find that approach detached and unhelpful for most people. Instead, I consider myself a practical, blue-collar theologian. My theology has to be functional and useful in the real world.
You might find my writing a bit edgy or punchy at times—I like to think of it as bold, thought-provoking, and unafraid. My goal is to be constructive in my analysis, and I write with a lot of passion and emotion.
