About
I’m a graduate of the University of Nebraska-Lincoln with a bachelors of arts degree in communication studies. I live and work in Lincoln with Campus Crusade for Christ on the UNL campus. In January ‘09, I’ll start a year-long stint with Campus Crusade in Pretoria, South Africa. I’m passionate about writing and speaking to challenge others to live a God-intoxicated, Christ-centered, and Bible-saturated life.
Other than what I do for a living, I’m a son, a brother, a friend, a life-long student, a music lover, a wannabe athlete, a sinner, and an heir of the Kingdom of Heaven. I love Jesus and the great goal of my life is to not waste it for him.
As far as what I believe doctrinally, you can check out my personal statement of faith. In short, however, my beliefs can be summed in four definitions:
I am:
- Christian - I believe that Jesus Christ is the Way, Truth, and Life, and adhere the Apostles and Nicene Creeds.
- Evangelical - I believe in the gospel and that it is the power of salvation for those who believe, and affirm the doctrinal statement National Association of Evangelicals.
- Missional - I believe the Church exists to disciple believers into Christ-centered laborers and to develop and maintain meaningful relationships with non-believers in order to help them encounter Christ, and I agree with the missional objectives of the Acts29 Church Network.
- Reformed - I believe in the “five solas” of the Protestant Reformation, and adhere to the Westminster Confession of Faith and the Heidelberg Catechism.
