If you are new here, this page offers ways to enter without feeling overwhelmed. You do not need to read everything. Choose one doorway and begin there.
The headings below are gentle ways to start “come and see”
one doorway at a time,
at your own pace.
1. Becoming a Safe Presence
Posts exploring how a person learns to be steady, attentive, and non-reactive in the lives of others.
2. Identity & Masculinity
Reflections on becoming a man — vulnerability, belonging, relational growth, and self-understanding.
3. Scripture as Formation
Writing where Scripture is wrestled with, lived through, and integrated rather than preached.
4. Family & Memory
Personal history, parents, siblings, grief, reconciliation, and remembering.
5. Crisis & Rebuilding
Moments of collapse, doubt, overwhelm, and the slow rebuilding afterward.
6. Justice & Listening
Explorations of fairness, mercy, restraint, and learning to listen before judging.
7. Books as Companions
Reflections where literature becomes mirror, teacher, or translator of inner life.
