The Longer Story

I've always been driven. Whether in ministry, leadership, or family life, I pushed harder, convinced that if I wasn't producing, I wasn't valuable. From the outside, things looked great. On the inside, I was running on fumes.

I wasn't burned out. Not yet. But I was restless, always pushing, always striving, always feeling like there was one more thing I needed to do to prove that I belonged.

Then Jesus interrupted me.

Through Scripture, wise mentors, honest community, and some painful moments of hitting my limits, I began to see that the rest Jesus promised wasn't a metaphor—it was a way of life.

Rest for the Restless is the story of what I have learned on this journey. It's written for people who want to serve God wholeheartedly without losing themselves in the process.

Today, I pastor 938 Church, where we are learning how to live out God's vision with joy, not exhaustion. I live in West Chester, PA, with my family. I love being outside, enjoying my family, coaching leaders, and helping people rediscover the grace of a rested life.
