A Pastor & Professor serving Jesus in the Pacific Northwest

In The Church.

I’m a preacher, pastor, and church planter. I’m currently the lead pastor of All Saints Bible Church, an ACME Fellowship congregation in Whatcom County, Washington. Before relocating home to the Bellingham area, I served as the Pastor for Preaching and Teaching at Trinity Church of Portland. I’ve ministered in the Pacific Northwest for almost twenty years. It's my aim to see Jesus' name lifted up, the gospel preached, healthy churches planted, and people reached with the gospel. You can find our church’s website here.

In The Semianry.

I am the Associate Professor of Christian Formation and the Associate Academic Dean at Western Seminary in Portland, OR. I’ve taught classes on Christian spirituality, biblical theology, congregational worship, and philosophy for public theology. My research interests include Christian ontology, historical spirituality, ecclesiology, and worship. As an academic, I am interested in scholarship that is deeply biblical, faithfully confessional, and truly practical. You can find my CV here.
