Welcome

Hey there.

I am a Pentecostal pastor in the Assemblies of God who loves liturgy, prayer, the Bible, theology, and reading.

A Penteliturgical Pastor is a collection of writings, devotions, and reflections from my deeply Pentecostal tradition. Follow along in my pastoral journey as we explore the way of Jesus through the illumination of the Holy Spirit.

I also have a specific newsletter, For Christian Parents, to help you understand how to guide your child toward Jesus.

Each week, I share:

• Devotional reflections that stir faith and hunger for God

• Theological writing from a Pentecostal perspective

• Pastoral thoughts for living the way of Jesus in today’s world

• Bonus content for Christian parents raising kids in a post-Christian culture

Who This Is For?

This is for anyone who wants meaningful Christian writing that’s both Spirit-filled and theologically rich. If any of these describe you, you’re in the right place:

✅ You think deeply about your faith in Jesus

✅ You want to live out your faith faithfully in this cultural moment

✅ You long to understand the work of the Holy Spirit today

✅ You want to see how Pentecostalism can embrace both depth and tradition

✅ You appreciate honest pastoral reflections from someone in the trenches

Bonus: For Christian Parents:

If you are a Christian parent of a GenZ or GenAlpha (people below the age of 25) and want to understand their world from a Christian perspective, this newsletter is for you. Read more here or subscribe by clicking the blue button.

About me:

I am a Kansas City native. Born and raised in the KC Metro, I love this community and the many relationships I have in my area. Growing up, my dad planted a church here in KC, so I have been around church my whole life. After high school, I moved to Springfield, MO, for a few years to attend college and seminary.

I graduated from Evangel University in 2020 (BS in Biblical Studies) and the Assemblies of God Theological Seminary in 2022 (MA in Theological Studies). I was distinguished as the W. I Evans Outstanding Graduate—Evangel University’s Department of Theology and Global Church Ministries’ highest honor and award, and I continue to value education by reading and learning independently. After graduating from the seminary, my wife and I moved back to KC to pastor with my father at my home church.

Rebecca and I have two sons and enjoy spending time with our boys.
