A Life of Purpose
Welcome! I’m an Episcopal priest serving a congregation in Metro Detroit... With a passion for gun safety... A zest for online Christian formation... A zeal for video blogging... A budding writer... A heart for those who have unintentionally harmed... A commitment to workforce housing... A love for marrying people... And a wonderful wife, three kids, and a cat... If we have common interests or not, I'd love to connect with you.
I have served as rector of St. David's Episcopal Church in Southfield, MI for 16 years, join us Sundays in person or via zoom.
Working on the issue of unwanted gun disposal, we've made some real progress in helping rid the U.S. of unwanted firearms.
Since 2013 we have been helping people learn more about faith through our online learning courses at ChurchNext.
Helping middle income families get better housing is a challenge that Oakland Housing has been addressing for 75 years.
Because hurting others hurts us, the Hyacinth Fellowship organizes support groups and reminds us that we are not our worst mistakes.
I have been officiating for more than 20 years and continue to find joy in helping couples build lifelong relationships.
When my friend the millionaire came over for dinner, she was dressed in a t-shirt and ripped jeans. My 7-year-old said, "You don't look like a millionaire!" She said, "I don't have to look like a millionaire, I am a millionaire!" Many times you and I don't look or feel like the people we are! God says we are chosen, we are blessed, we are the apple of God's eye! We are provided for, taken care of, and have nothing to worry about! Don't believe the lies that you are anything less than royalty! You play a unique and invaluable role in God's plan for the universe and are destined for greatness in God's eyes! We don't know the truth, God knows the truth, and God says you are chosen and blessed! |
Let it go!
Holding onto grudges and giving more attention to revenge than moving on is foolish.
Confucius said when you embark on a mission of vengeance first dig two graves!
