Preaching, to me, is the work of building bridges.
A bridge doesn’t erase distance—it spans it. In the same way, every sermon seeks to connect two worlds: the ancient, living story of Scripture and the complex, searching world we inhabit today. The task isn’t simply to explain the text, but to faithfully carry its voice across the gap—so that what God has spoken then can be clearly heard now.
That gap is real. It stretches across centuries of culture, language, and lived experience. But it is not unbridgeable. Through thoughtful, practical preaching, I aim to help others walk that span—to see how the truth of Scripture still speaks, still challenges, and still transforms.
So together, we build and cross that bridge—discovering that the wisdom of the Bible is not distant or outdated, but present, personal, and powerfully relevant for our lives today.
I currently serve as Rector of Prince of Peace Anglican Church in Aliquippa, Pennsylvania, within the Anglican Diocese of Pittsburgh (ADP) and the Anglican Church in North America (ACNA).

Read John 19:1-37
It was the single most horrible day in the history of the world. No incident has ever been more tragic, and no future event will ever match it. No surprise attack, no political assassination, no financial collapse, no military invasion, no atomic detonation or nuclear warfare, no cataclysmic act of terrorism, no large-scale famine or disease — can eclipse the darkness of that day.
No suffering has ever been so unfitting, no human has ever been so unjustly treated, and no other human has ever been so worthy of praise. No one else has ever lived without sin, and no other human has ever been God himself. No horror surpasses what transpired on a hill outside Jerusalem almost two millennia ago, yet we call it “Good” Friday.
