A Clarion Call for Catechesis in the ACNA
The Diocese of the Western Gulf Coast's Episcopal election is a microcosm of the wider problem we're having in the ACNA. And this stems from the fact that we have buried the riches of our tradition, not from the fact that we don't have them. This video uses the Episcopal election as a case study of the wider problem we're having, and I suggest a solution going forward.

He Is More Lovely than Sin Is Ugly
In this video, I show that Christ is infinitely more lovely than sin is ugly. I argue that because of this--because the life of Christ, in the smallest degree, outshines the ugliness of your sin--that life is a compensation that outweighs the ugliest sin to whatever degree it dwells in you.

Why You Should Want Eternal Life - A Response to Skeptics
In this podcast, I respond to the claim that we shouldn't want eternity. This video was inspired by an article written by a friend of mine from college, found here: https://medium.com/excommunications/y... I hope this is helpful to you.
