I am convienced that the church is the family of God called to live in the distinct ways of God in order that all the world might come to know Him.

After growing up and pastoring in the average instituatinal church I soon realized our churches have strayed from what we see in the book of Acts. I continued to read scripture and juxtapose it against my Christian experience and was left wanting.

I began to ask questions like:
- What is the Church?
- Why does the church exist?
- How should the church be organized?
- What is the gospel?
- How do we make authentic disciples?
- What is mission(s)?

These questions and others led me down a journey of deconstructing what I had always known and believed. Through close mentorship, study, and good biblical reflection I came into a new paradigm.

Now I want to spend my life helping others come into this new way of life!

* We find life and freedom through the Gospel of Jesus Christ.

* We find purpose and belonging in Christ’s church!
