Parenting Forward

Marriage, Family & Relationships

“Powerful and well written, Parenting Forward is a much-needed awakening in a world too willing to close its eyes to its most marginalized, voiceless, and vulnerable inhabitants.”

The Voices We Carry

Counseling, Grief & Mental Health

“We all carry darkness. And we all carry light. Learning to let our light illuminate our darkness and expose the most vulnerable, flawed, broken parts of ourselves frees us to become the unashamedly human, miraculously divine image-bearers we were created to be and, in the process, opens our hearts to the other vulnerable, flawed, broken humans we encounter every day. That is the healing message of The Voices We Carry. With practical steps interspersed with personal stories in the powerful voice of a hospital chaplain, The Voices We Carry is more than a self-help book or a memoir. It is a revelation of what it means to be human in an often inhumane world. It is an invitation to be fully and fiercely and authentically human despite, or even because of, our frailty and failings and to reach out to each other, again and again, in the face of the sometimes insurmountable grief of life and love and loss on this gorgeous old planet we share.”
