Preaching can be compared to the art of bridge building. Just like a bridge connects two separate places, my goal as a preacher is to create a bridge between the world of the Bible and the postmodern world we live in today. It’s not just about explaining the biblical text; it’s about effective communication and delivering a God-given message to a living audience who needs to hear it. There’s a gap between the ancient scriptures and our present cultural context, and I aim to bridge that gap through practical preaching. Together, let’s bridge the divide and make the timeless wisdom of the Bible relevant and applicable to our lives today. Currently I am serving at Holy Spirit Anglican Church, Akron, OH as Rector and as Dean of the Anglican Diocese of the Great Lakes (ADGL) Pro-Cathedral.

Read John 21.15-19
Third Sunday of Easter
On Tuesday morning, the churchwardens and I talked about the year so far, and we got into an excellent conversation about “what initiates church growth? We identified having a professional and informative website helps. Having a presence on social media with good branding helps. Make sure families with children feel welcome, and finally, essential church growth happens, when leaders are feeders—when God’s people step up and take ownership of God’s mission.
This is the central point of Jesus’ conversation with Peter; that the pastoral priority of the church is to lead and feed. When that is a priority in the church's life, growth and new life ensue.
