This is my personal blog. I am an ordained elder in the Church of the Nazarene, currently serving the church as pastor and teacher. The thoughts expressed on this site are my own. They do not necessarily reflect any official positions of my local church or the Church of the Nazarene as a whole. The public expression of the Christian faith is the right and responsibility of all who profess faith. I hope my thoughts encourage and challenge you. I look forward to the public dialogue.
