Providence Community Church

Whatever else my wife and I have going on in life, we are thrilled to devote most of our energy toward the care and cultivation of Providence Community Church. Alongside the rest of the leadership team, we are happy to serve Jesus in the midst of this sweet congregation — a people seeking to exemplify “Truth and Beauty in Community.”

The Shepherds Guild

A big part of my ministry burden has to do with helping pastors serve their local churches with joy, backbone, and excellence. The Shepherds Guild is the culmination of 30 years of thinking about the nature of preaching. It decomposes a pastor's own sermon archive into a rhetorical profile — theological emphases, illustration patterns, a preaching fingerprint — and sets it alongside the masters so preachers can grow in their own voice.

Sermon Steward

Sermon Steward is step one in building what I hope will become an obviously superior sermon hosting and dissemination platform. I don't know of anything else like it available to local churches — in my opinion, everybody should be using it.

SG Regional Church Plant Committee Chair

I have the privilege of serving as chair of the Sovereign Grace Regional Church Planting Committee for the Midwest and Northwest, which encompasses 14 states — Minnesota, Wisconsin, Illinois, Iowa, Missouri, Kansas, Nebraska, North Dakota, South Dakota, Montana, Wyoming, Idaho, Washington, and Oregon — and has an estimated population of 54 million and growing!

We currently have a particular burden for the Mountain West — you can read about its unique demographic story here. If you're interested in planting a church in any of these states, please reach out.

The Quiet Read App

A distraction-free reader that lets you read anything one sentence at a time. I built it for myself, found it so useful that I wanted to share it with others — your readings and saved passages, on every device.

Uncle Theology

While music can be used to entertain and distract, it has always been used to teach. Thanks to AI tools like Suno, guys like me — with a fair bit of theological knowledge and a penchant for industrial-grade poetry — can produce songs that teach. The heart of this project is my desire to equip my nieces and nephews with essential truths, so every month I try to ship a new album, posted along with scripture references and questions for contemplation.

Sovereign Grace Philippines

I have the great privilege of working with a number of pastors in the Philippines. As an extension of my ministry at Providence and within Sovereign Grace Churches, I get to help pastors grow in their capacity to study and teach God's word. I absolutely love the Philippines! To learn more about what I do there, check out the page I built for my friend Josh.
