Wow, it's been a minute! More like a month. Maybe two... Regardless of the time frame, I'm back with a brand new episode of Carrying My Cross podcast! This week, I discuss where I've been these long several weeks, the nature of disobedience, how best to recover from time spent away from God, and embark on a deep dive of Romans 8:30. It's a whole lot of stuff packed into a tight...

Howdy! On this deeply personal edition of Carrying My Cross podcast, I share the story of how, in the midst of the worst depressive episode of my life, I ended up in a Christian mental health facility for 50 days fighting for my faith and my sanity. This also serves as a primer for anyone considering going to Honey Lake Clinic as I go deep into what you can expect.  TRIGGER WARNING: This episode f...

Greetings from the road! Recorded on Airpods in an echo filled hotel room, this quick and less than professional episode explores my history with Easter and how I plan on carrying the lessons of the Resurrection on to the days / weeks / months ahead.

Greetings from the wilds of Houston! On this episode, I recap a week of ministry to the un-homed, unfortunate, and marginalized communities of Houston with my home church's youth group.

Howdy, friends! On this episode of Carrying My Cross Podcast, I discuss my love of music and how it's affected my upbringing, my faith, and everything in between. We also do another 3:16, this time counting ourselves some Levities in Numbers 3:16. And somehow, someway, I mine valuable truth from a less than popular piece of Scripture. Enjoy!

This is the week the Lord's provided and it's time for yet another edition of Carrying My Cross podcast! This week, I provide a life update, talk glowingly about Luke 4:1-13 and do a brand new 3:16 on Leviticus. Is the third book of the Bible completely skippable or can we find some modern truth in this ancient text? Let's find out together! FEATURED ARTIST: Mountains in the Sea - h...

On this episode, I have a one on one conversation with my best friend of over 35 years, Joe Corio. We talk about growing up Catholic, the twists and turns of our faith journeys, the wonders of a good Youth Group, and how we're doing spiritually today.

In part one of my three part testimony, I discuss growing up as a cultural Roman Catholic in Northern New Jersey, finding myself in spite of myself, and how religion of any kind became a non-factor for me, despite society's attempts to make it so.
