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So together, we build and cross that bridge—discovering that the wisdom of the Bible is not distant or outdated, but present, personal, and powerfully relevant for our lives today.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 Jeremiah 1.4-10; Psalm 71.1-6; 1 Corinthians 13.1-13; Luke 4.21-30
Fourth Sunday After Epiphany (Year C)
These texts are rich with power and images that tell God’s continuous story in the world. And that is, we all share a call to be God’s prophets in the world, even though that can be a terrifying thing at times.
There is a God-given invitation before us:
- To join together to embody Paul’s prophetic words more fully
- To explore just how much a part of the Jesus-rejecting crowd we can be
- Sing the song of reclaiming joy just as the Psalmist did
- And finally, allow the Holy Spirit to stir something in you as you seek to speak God’s word
