The Glory of God is people who are fully alive.

Meet Michael

With 30+ years of experience providing spiritual care and support to numerous individuals and groups, I am often described as a thoughtful mystic, an accidental activist, and intuitively empathetic. I am passionate about helping folks connect with the God-who-is-love in healthy, thoughtful, and life-giving ways, helping them to experience this love in personally transforming ways.
 

I hold a Master's in Ministry from St. Stephen’s University  - Spiritual Formation.  I authored the book “Becoming Love: Avoiding Common Forms of Christian Insanity" along with hundreds of faith-inspired articles, several of which have been published and referenced by various blogs, leadership and spiritual care websites.
