- This is a blog in service to ministry. I find that when I'm theologically engaged (teaching, reading, and writing), I'm a better pastor and preacher.
- This blog will (hopefully) be a discipline for me. I need to be more intentional about how I structure my time in terms of study and theological reflection.
- This blog will focus on theological or exegetical questions that I have. Some I've grappled with since the beginning of my journey of faith. Some have arisen only as I've entered the world of vocational ministry. I also hope to do some exegetical work to possibly bring up new questions.
- I hope that if you're reading this blog that you will leave a comment. I would to love to engage in conversation and hear other points of view.
I am a co-pastor (along with my wife) and we are in ministry together with the people of Harrisburg UMC.

Another was resentful that her parents forced her to go as child and now only goes at Easter and Christmas. Still another felt that God was everywhere and that He hears your prayers no matter where you are.
Thomas & I have visted a few churches here but haven't found our place yet. What are your thoughts? How do I reconcile my concerns that I haven't found a church home that meets my needs with the belief of one of my coworkers that I'm "bound for hell" (her words, not mine).
