Hi, I’m Brandon and I like to write about religion, pop-culture, faith and where these intersect. I also review books and have had the privilege to receive many advanced reader copies and be on several book launch teams for authors like Tara Beth Leach, Brian Zahnd, Zack Hunt, and Tom Oord.

My day job is as a Technology Project Engineer with an amazing tech company in Nashville, TN. My vocation is ministry and I serve as the Discipleship Pastor on a volunteer basis in my local Church of the Nazarene. I was recently ordained an Elder in the Church of the Nazarene and that is a long journey I may yet tell here.

For those who have been here a while, I apologize for the links, but I would like those who are new to see the kinds of things I write. I also have a few guest posts every now and then and my recommended Substacks can be found on my homepage. I love having discussions and learning from others. My hope is that the posts I write spark thoughts and discussions.
