I’m grateful and excited to serve as a faculty mentor with Kairos University.

For years I’ve walked with pastors, chaplains, and caregivers through loss, calling, and the long work of becoming the kind of people who can stay present when life gets hard. Mentoring students in this competency-based, context-rooted model feels like a natural next step in that same work.

I look forward to walking alongside men and women who are being formed for ministry right where they already live and serve.

Grateful for the invitation. Grateful for the students. Grateful that formation doesn’t have to pull people out of the very places God has already planted them.

If you’re exploring theological education that stays close to real life and real vocation, I’d be glad to talk.

Great ministry opportunity!

If you read the book of Job as a problem to be solved, you'll be frustrated. The book doesn't solve the problem of suffering. It doesn't answer the question of why innocent people suffer. It doesn't provide a theological framework that makes sense of catastrophic loss.

If you read the book of Job as a road to be traveled, something different happens. You follow a man from orientation through the most catastrophic disorientation imaginable, and you watch what happens to him on the other side. Not what arguments he made, not what theological conclusions he reached, but what happened to him — what the journey through the hard place actually did to a human being who refused to take the shortcut.

And at the end of that road, there's a single sentence that I believe contains more wisdom about grief than most books written on the subject.

'My ears had heard of you but now my eyes have seen you.' (Job 42:5)

That's the hinge. That's the whole thing.

If your church voted you out or pressured you to resign, you're not alone — and you're not finished. Here's what the Bible actually says to pastors navigating forced termination and ministry loss.

A grief prayer tucked inside a genealogy nobody reads — and why it matters if you're in the wilderness right now.

If you’ve ever sat in church carrying something nobody around you could see — this is for you.
Grief doesn’t always come from a funeral.
Sometimes it’s a slow goodbye to a parent with dementia.
Sometimes it’s the faith you used to have before the prayer went unanswered.
Sometimes it’s a loss layered on a loss layered on a loss, with no room in between to breathe.
The Universal Loss Assessment names what you’re carrying in 9 questions. 3 minutes. Free. Private.
You’ll land in one of seven loss profiles grounded in real research and pastoral experience — and you’ll get a resource path built for your specific kind of loss. Not a generic “grief takes time” speech.
Whether you’re in acute loss, anticipatory grief, caregiver exhaustion, or wrestling with God Himself — there’s a next step that fits.
