SPEAKING & WRITING
I wear a lot of hats. My main vocation is at All Saints Lutheran Church where I serve as vicar and headmaster of All Saints Classical Academy. I also speak and write on a variety of topics at the intersection of words and work, Christianity and culture, history and family. I was a history teacher for many years and am contributing editor at Salvo Magazine and columnist at Modern Reformation.
