Book Review – The Justice of Jesus
Every now and again, you read something that you wish you wrote. Joash Thomas’ book “The Justice of Jesus” is that for me. I am incredibly thankful for this book because as a racialized person who identifies as a Christian, I am tired. I am tired of having to explain the ways in which white Continue reading

On Disgust and Hating Our Neighbours
I wrote this article awhile ago for a particular group that shall remain nameless. The editor and I had different ideas on how to move forward so I decided to pull back my work from being considered. However, I’ve had people ask me if I have written on it before in a shorter version so Continue reading

On Religious Trauma
It is only recently that I’ve had to really deal with the issue of religious trauma. I think that it was there but I never allowed myself to feel it. There has been an intentional part of me to try and be more attuned to my own body. As a result, I have been noticing Continue reading

For the last couple of months, I’ve been really thinking about the concept of love. A couple of months ago, a close family friend of ours passed away. She was a woman who loved God and loved others. It was so touching to hear so many stories of how her love touched the lives of Continue reading

Lenten Journey 2018
Lent 2018 started this February 14. The fact that Ash Wednesday also fell on Valentine’s Day wasn’t lost on me. Both dates basically meant the same to me anyways: death to self.

The friendships made from going there for the last three years has been truly a blessing to me. Every time I go there, there’s Continue reading

“Truthiness” vs. Truth
I’m so thankful to be surrounded by so many friends who are ridiculously smart and just all around nice people. Today’s guest blog post is by my friend, Phil Strickland. With everything that is happening in our world today, his voice as an American evangelical Christian is one that needs to be heard amongst other competing American Continue reading

Community and Belonging: Pappas Patristic Institute Summer Program 2016
Last week, I had the great opportunity and privilege to participate as a Teaching Fellow for the Pappas Patristic Institute’s summer program.

I got to know Justin awhile back through a mutual friend and at a young adult’s retreat. After that, I had the great privilege of starting my Continue reading

Theology Thursday – When fear is no longer a reaction, but a willful action
A picture taken by Magnus Wennman from a collection called “Where The Children Sleep”, which showcases the life of refugee kids after their flight from their homeland, Syria. Like most people, I was shocked, angered, disheartened, and incredibly saddened by the recent horrific violent scenes coming out from Paris. I was at a book launch Continue reading
