“He brings the kind of honesty that comes from getting things wrong enough times to know what right looks like.”
Speaking Topics
Faith in an Age of AI
How should Christians think about artificial intelligence? Exploring the theological implications of machines that can create, communicate, and seemingly "think."
The Return of Mystery
Why the rise of AI might actually be an invitation back to wonder, awe, and the irreducibly human dimensions of faith that machines cannot replicate.
Business as Mission
How to build ventures that expand Jesus' kingdom of grace, not just the bottom line. What it looks like to do real work in real markets as an act of faith.
The Uncompartmentalized Life
You don't have to pick one lane. How to run multiple ventures, pursue big goals, and stay grounded in faith without burning out (or going crazy).
Endurance & Leadership
What 3 Ironmans and ultramarathons taught me about pain, perseverance, and building things that last. The finish line is never where you think it is.
Raising Kids in a World of AI
Equipping parents and youth leaders to help the next generation develop discernment, character, and faith in an age of unprecedented technological change.
The Persecuted Church & the Church in the West
The call of the Western church to pray for, walk alongside, and learn from believers who follow Jesus at great cost.
Pastoring in the Digital Age
Practical guidance for church leaders navigating AI-generated content, digital discipleship, and maintaining authentic community in a tech-saturated world.
Starting Something From Nothing
Lessons from launching ventures across industries and continents. What it actually takes to go from idea to operating business, and why most advice is wrong.
