I am extremely grateful for what I get to do in life. I work to give support to media personnel through Media Chaplaincy New Zealand (a service of CBA), with the offer of being there to laugh, lament, and get into the journey with them through personal and professional support. You can find out more about that here.

I also turn on a microphone weekly on New Zealand’s largest talk radio station, Newstalk ZB. You can tune into what I do every Sunday evening from 6pm.

Alongside both of those I write. My life is a convergence of ministry, chaplaincy, public discourse, and a lifelong exploration of Christian spirituality and faith. I remain curious, and writing is a great way to process it. Due to people generously subscribing to my writing for a small monthly fee, I’m able to have a space where I write and people can engage with that writing away from the noise of social media. If you want some spiritual input in your life from a Christian perspective but don’t have the time to read whole books, join me at Along the Way.

I live in Hamilton, New Zealand (the city of the future) with my amazing wife who works as a speech and language therapist in Hamilton, and our beautiful daughter. I like trying my hand at photography, and I have a thing for coffee.

I am an ordained minister within the Wesleyan Methodist Church of Aotearoa New Zealand.

I’m a Jesus loving, scripture adoring person of faith who feels most at home with liturgy, silence and ritual (I feel right at home in big, old cathedrals). I have a broad love of the beliefs and ideas of others. I love interacting with and learning from people of other religions (or non-religions). I get a kick out of candles, icons, incense and prayer kneelers. I reckon any idea of salvation that’s just about my soul going to heaven is too small. I want to experience the Divine and engage in practices that open me up to God moving, transforming and shaping me so that I can better participate in the divine story of healing and reconciling all of creation.
