Embarking

I’m a father of 4, husband of 1.  I’m a Pastor of Spiritual Formation in a large evangelical, reformed church in West Michigan.  Formerly, I served as a campus pastor and later senior pastor of a church on the campus of the University of Michigan.

Here are a few quotes that, when I read them, describe what I want this blog to be about:

…not only am I often unsatisfied with conventional answers, but even worse, I’ve consistently been unsatisfied with conventional answers. [Brian McLaren, Everything Must Change, p. 3]

A person’s life is shaped by many things — among the most important are the questions she or he can’t help but ask. [Brian McLaren, Everything Must Change, p. 11]

These are the questions that shape the way I think about what matters. [Chris Rice, lyrics to "Questions"]
