The Big Idea

If you want a word picture or a mental image of what the interior of my mind feels like here are the major “biomes” I find myself living in regularly.

Notes on the theory of memory that I am working on processing through Memory, the Things We Keep with Us


I stand like grass reaching up to understand the sky

I was raised as a Boy Scout and many of my fondest memories of growing up are set in the woods or in a tent. That nostalgic glue is how we will describe these mental spaces now:

The Universe and Humans

🏖️Universe-Humans

I think of sitting at the beach and starring off into the sea. Humanity and the universe are just as incredible but also chaotic to ponder.

Spiritual Practices and Embodied Living

🥾SpiritualPractices-EmbodiedLiving

Living is crazy and trying to figure out how to live well and practice my faith is a lot like hiking in the mountains.

Doctrine, Poetry, and Story

🔥Doctrine-Poetry-Story Sitting by a campfire and watching it crackle is a setting that often brings out the best in contemplating faith, poetry and telling stories.

Bringing Life into the World

🛠️BringingLifeintotheWorld

I love building and crafting. It is a little way that we can bring some life and joy into the world that was not there before.

Living in Community and Mission

🍽️Community-Mission

Sitting at a table for dinner is the simplest and more foundational form of community and one that I seek to encourage in the rest of my life as well.
