7 key nicene and post-nicene fathers [INFOGRAPHIC]

The time around, and shortly after, the Council of Nicaea in 325 was a wild time for Christianity. The Roman Emperor Constantine legalized Christianity in 313 through the Edict of Milan, and eventually made it the official state religion of the Roman Empire. Finally,...

The Story That
Changed Everything

Leading up to my ordination this weekend, I had the opportunity to share my story with the people of @stedwardsepiscopal, and it was a really cool time.

Through it all, two things stood out...

1 - That my story is unique (as all of ours are). I had one friend tell me, "Whoa! I didn't know all of that about you! You've done some STUFF in your life!" I don't always think about it, but yeah, I guess I've had some pretty incredible experiences... the kind which have shaped me deeply. And I'm grateful for all that God has allowed me to experience (so far).

2 - How everything I've been through has led me to what I believe is the perfect fulfillment of God's calling on my life. It's been a REALLY long journey, with lots of ups and downs. But I've faithfully pursued God with all that I am, and I feel like I'm landing in the perfect place for what He's made me for.

I've said recently to someone that I feel more fulfilled in ministry now than I ever have in my life.

Thank you, Lord. It's an honor to serve You.

And thank you to everyone in the @cfdiocese who played some role in the fulfillment of a 20+ year old calling.

I'm looking forward to this weekend and getting ordained. But I'm really looking forward to what God has for me on the other side!

We're starting a new Wednesday night #kidsministry program at @stedwardsepiscopal around a read aloud through the Narnia books, and we're using a GREAT resource from friend @christinditchfield to guide our discussions.

We'll read the stories, discuss biblical truths, and work in some other cool activities to help us experience the stories fun ways.

This is open to ALL children and youth. It'll be fun for the younger ones, and the older (youth group aged) ones will be helping engage the younger ones. All of this is happening while the grown-ups hang out in the church's ABC (Adult Bible Conversations).

Starts Oct 16th!

A Message From Dan

What does it look like to live a Christian life? Like, TRULY live a Christian life? If I’m honest, I’m over the fake front of being a happy, blessed, and perfect person in order to impress others. Truth is, I’m a sinner who’s just trying to figure out how to do this without looking like an absolute fool. I think the Christian life is about admitting our brokenness, while raising our hand to say,”Here I am Lord! What would You have me do?” And that’s what this blog is all about… just a dude trying to do the best I can, and maybe hoping that you’re stumbling through the same journey. Maybe we can walk together.
