Kairos is my second attempt at a personal blog. My first is doing well enough, but I wanted to try a new venture related to thoughts from the specific perspective of being a newly ordained Presbyterian pastor. I come from a fairly traditional and left-of-center background, and I have interests in a wide range of subjects. Recently I’ve been doing some reading in emergent churches and I’m interested in how that might engage, in creative dialectical tension, with the best trends in the Presbyterian church.

I’m 30. I’ve been married for 6 years. I consider myself progressive but I hate labels, particularly as they pertain to politics or religion. I’m interested in where this blog will lead. But all in God’s good time…
