Field Notes on Bi-Vocational Church Leadership in Suburban America
I’m the pastor of The Well in Feasterville, PA about 30 minutes Northeast of Philadelphia; Designer, Programmer, Owner of 343design; Website specialist for MyOhai; Board Member for Lemonade International; Member of the Ecclesia Network; Father of four boys and husband.

The church and faith have always thrived in a society that persecutes it. I’ve been wondering lately if the American church isn’t due for a little persecution. However, I still pray, as Paul did, that we would be able to live quiet and peaceful lives.
