In the works is a project called “Emmaus Road Ministries“. There is this great story of two Jesus followers who are heading home from Jerusalem after Jesus had been crucified. He had already been resurrected, but they didn’t know it. They had gone to Jerusalem with expectation that the hope of their faith would become a reality. But as they walked home on the road to Emmaus, they were confused, disappointed, and maybe even angry.

Jesus was walking with them as they talked about everything that had gone wrong, but they didn’t recognize him until they sat at a table and shared a meal together. The purpose of ERM is to encourage and equip churches to reach their community by gathering around the table and having Jesus conversations.

For years I’ve been writing a blog called, “Seeing Their Faith.” I’ve recently clarified that project and moved many of the old posts to an area on this page called “Reflections“. “Seeing Their Faith” is a project I’m working on because I love the Church and want to help local churches to be faithful to the mission God has given them.

I believe that a community of Jesus followers who seek to live how Jesus call them to live can shape a community and bring peace to those present. I also know that it is challenging to live faithfully today. Not only are there temptations that seek to lead us away from faith, but there are so many ways to be distracted to the point where we miss God in our presence. But if the church can live as faithful witnesses who love God and love their neighbors, the world will see their faith.

In addition to everything else that is happening on this page, I simply love to write. I think that is because I process my thoughts while writing. Writing is a learning process for me. You’ll find writings on a variety of topics that include personal reflection, cultural critique, or any other topic that I need to write about to get out of my head.
