Work with Me
When most people think of Christianity, they think of Evangelicalism. But there is more to the Christian religion and Christian spirituality than that narrow perspective.
My mission is to help people to realize they don’t have to be an Evangelical to be Christian. I want to empower people to claim a Christian spiritual path that works for them.
I primarily come from a “radical” Christian theology, but I appreciate a variety of different perspectives. I hope to introduce you to different ways to understand and experience God and the Christian tradition. While I do so, I keep one eye focused on what I believe is the future of the Christian religion in America.
If you want to learn about my perspective or get my help as you develop your own Christian spirituality, there are several ways we can do this. Below are your options. Remember, if you ever have questions, you can always DM me through the Substack app or you can reply to any email. I would love to hear from you.

3. Purchase my book, Drinking from an Empty Glass
If you like to think and are interested in learning about my postmodern Christian spirituality and theology, this is for you. Topics I tackle include…
The nature of a narrative reality and personal truth
How spirituality functions within the narrative context
How the loss of Absolute Truth is a liberating and empowering spiritual experience
My understanding of what happened on the cross
My understanding of the Call to be Christian today
You can buy Drinking from an Empty Glass: Living out of a Meaningless Spirituality on Amazon.
4. Purchase my 49-Day Spiritual Growth Journal
We typically think of one’s spirituality as being a distinct dimension of one’s life. For example, you have your physical health, mental health, and spiritual health.
I don’t agree.
That’s why I created the Multi-Dimensional Spiritual Growth Framework. Contrary to the typical understanding, I belive that “spirituality” is what emerges from the interplay of the following 7 dimensions of daily life:
Prayer
Story
Perspective
Emotions
Passion
Incarnation
Conflict
The 49-Day Spiritual Growth Journal leverages my unique system to help you find deeper meaning and purpose in your life over 7 weeks.

5. I can walk with you as a spiritual companion
Ever feel like you just need someone to talk to about your spiritual life, someone who can walk with you on your spiritual journey, someone who has a certain standing and experience within the Christian spiritual tradition? If you want me to be that person, I would be glad to spend some time with you.
Let’s schedule an hour-long session to talk over video chat. The service is “pay what you want”, so it can fit whatever budget you have. It can even be free if that’s all you can afford.
Sign up for a Spiritual Pathfinding Session on Gumroad to find out if we are a good fit for one another.
6. I’ll give you guidance on how to redesign and rewrite your website so it’s more effective marketing for your progressive Christian ministry
I’m a firm believer in the power of a website…assuming it is done well. Unfortunately, so few are. If you contact me, I will do an “audit” of your current website design and copy. That means I will go over your website and give you feedback through a recorded video.
Sign up for a Website Audit of Design and Copy on Gumroad and pay what you want for it.
7. I can write, design, and build you a WordPress website for your progressive Christian ministry
If you are part of a progressive Christian community or spiritual entrepreneur and want me to do your website work for you, let's talk. I also include marketing coaching as part of my service.
Sign up for a Discernment Call to get the ball rolling. If available times don’t work, get in touch through a Substack DM or by replying to one of my regular emails. We’ll work something out.
8. If you are strapped for cash and need marketing advice, I have a “pay what you want” option
I realize that many are struggling with the economy, and yet they need marketing advice so they can generate income or meet other goals. If you can’t afford marketing services, talk with me. I have a “pay what you want” option. I’d rather you get the help you need for less than have to struggle without it.
