I realized in my early twenties that I needed to understand my faith, and this Christ who was changing my life (very much for the better). Since then I’ve been trying to mine the ancient stuff, the Scriptures, history, and the world we live in, to find the keys to joy, courage, hope and integrity. It felt like it was my vocation to give voice to that, and that led me to this work.

One of the keys turned out to be a loving community of faith in which we can find our way. A community in which we challenge and encourage one another and are nurtured, in which we can share our variety of amazing gifts, in which we learn of God from one another. St. John’s has been a great blessing to me, being open to this kind of exploration. We don’t have to have all the answers. The world is changing and we need to discover ways to be faithful in this present world God is giving us, for the sake of right living, justice, joy and the common good.
