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So together, we build and cross that bridge—discovering that the wisdom of the Bible is not distant or outdated, but present, personal, and powerfully relevant for our lives today.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 Galatians 6.11-18
Fourth Sunday After Pentecost
Over the years, I have had this discussion with people many times, and that is how strange and how not so strange it is that the more mature you become as a Christian, the less worthy you feel. It seems strange because the closer you come to Christ, the more his character rubs off on you. But it's not so strange because the closer we get to the real beauty of Christ, the more obvious and uglier our remaining sin appears. So we who are Christ-followers are destined for now to live with a mingling of joy and remorse.
