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So together, we build and cross that bridge—discovering that the wisdom of the Bible is not distant or outdated, but present, personal, and powerfully relevant for our lives today.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).

Provocateur — The Parables of Jesus
A Certain Rich Man
Read Luke 12.13-21
We all have stories. Stories help us make sense of who we are and the world we live in. They shape our culture. They shape our relationships. They shape our decisions. They shape us.
Jesus is the most famous storyteller who ever lived. Throughout His ministry, he taught with thought-provoking ‘parables’ — stories coloured with provocation, humour, intriguing characters, twists and turns — where His story is our story, and our story is found within His story.
So, let's unpack Jesus' parables of sadness, joy, death, life, darkness, light, hell, heaven, abandonment, acceptance, repentance, and grace.
