on a journey... towards grace, mercy, and love

About Me

First, check out my blog- i write often about life, faith, and the journey we all are learning to take.Lets see... i'm a minister and 25 years old. I used to work for Liberty University, Jerry Falwell, and that crew that makes things happen on the campus. I have a masters degree in Religion from Liberty Theological Seminary. I filed a law suit against my school system when i was 16 because they discriminated against me and the bible club i started. I work all over the country helping churches, non profits, and businesses do what they want to do but can't because they lack resources and experience. I love people and conversation... i like to see things outside of set perspectives... i love to bring color to people's lives.. i love to see something beautiful.I like to work out, read, mountain bike, the beach, read on the beach, art, beauty, smiles, dancing, friends, postmodernism, sunsets, sunrise, night time, day time, Africa, social justice, thoughtfulness, romancing with my God.Thats a lil bit about me... what about you? Message me :)me--- im on a journey seeking God and meeting as many people on the way. I'm in love with my savior-- i love meeting Him somewhere in nature--- and sit and listen. I'm tasting and seeing life.

My Interests

spending time with the lover of my soul, smiling, beauty, dancing, dreaming, mountains, drums, cultures, international people, sushi, loving people, worship, peace, truth, love, sunsets, friends, family, community, being free, art, music, post modernism, college, praise, surrendering, being broken, digging deeper, tasting and seeing life, singing, the passions of my heart, being consumed with every thought by my savior, romancing with sweet wine poured into a cup of communion, finding the secrets of God's hearts, basking in God's love.
