reflections on the catechism: human nature

the #codexinstagramus initiative: a bible photography project
What if you could only use pictures to tell the story of the Gospel? I've been thinking a great deal about Luke, the writer of his Gospel and the Book of Acts. The influence of his writing is unquestionable. But one thing most people don't know about him is that he...

3 lessons from a year of activist faith
The Activist Faith project has been more than a book project for me. It's been part of a process of discovering a way of life. The process started in my heart several years ago, and it's hard to believe that it's already been a year since the book was released. In...
