Welcome to My Journal!
UPDATE: I’ve moved my regular writing to Substack! This is now my archives.
Here on my blog, I love to write personal stories, truths I’m learning from studying Scripture, lessons I’ve learned from those wiser than me, and what God is teaching me through writing.
I’d for you sit back in your favourite chair while the little ones sleep or while you’re on break from work and read a bit of what I’m thinking on these days. Feel free to reach out with any questions or thoughts of your own!
A Tale of l’Acadie, the Tale of a Refugee
The Acadian deportation of 1755 reminds us to extend welcome and love to our neighbors today, to those who may feel like strangers in a strange land.
Learning the Unfolding Story of Redemption
A book review of Zach Keele’s book, The Unfolding Word. The Unfolding Word seeks to help us see how the entire Bible unfolds as one unified story held together by the gospel.
Reflecting on "The Hiding Place" by Corrie Ten Boom
What Corrie desires to show us in her book is that God is greater than any suffering we walk through, that the love and grace of his gospel permeates even the darkest places, like a Nazi concentration camp.
The Importance of a Historical Faith
Rich theology with it’s complex history has been abridged to memes, social media captions, and slogans. What was once discussed and believed from thorough exegesis and study can be summed up in pithy sentences on graphics. What took some years of study, question-asking, and many books from a variety of libraries to understand, others today can learn in thirty minutes listening to a podcast or two minutes scanning an article. While there are good things to be taken from these, I wonder if we’ve forsaken anything for them.
