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.

Sixth Sunday After Epiphany
Let me start this morning by asking a question. What do you think of when you think of God? What picture comes to mind when you imagine what God is like?
I suspect that most of us carry around a picture of God or, in some sense, a view of what we think God is like. It’s a view that profoundly shapes what we expect from God. It’s a view of how we feel about our faith and perhaps even how we think about each other. A typical person or, for that matter, a typical congregational member, in some part or maybe even a significant portion, would picture God as an enforcer of rules. Or God as a law-giver. Or God as the one sitting in heaven with a perpetual finger upraised in a warning and perhaps accusation.
