preaching

One of the great joys and honors in my life is opening the wisdom of ancient sacred texts for today's people, prayerfully researching and thinking on their behalf, then bringing them good news of all the ways God is actively redeeming the world, and meeting us where we are with what we need. Here you will find themes of grace and compassion, a fresh take on familiar Scriptures, and insight into Lutheran theology and practice.
