| Introduction | Hello All! Come on in to my blog generated from Elkhart, Indiana in the USA. I'm a transplant to the midwest from the Pittsburgh vacinity (Indiana, PA to be exact). I'm affiliated with Associated Mennonite Biblical Seminary where I'm studying Christian Formation and Discipleship with the intent of rounding out my education and ministry experience. I consider myself a radical follower of Jesus, and find His best example for living in the Sermon on the Mount. I'm passionate about the Body of Christ. I long to see believers from across Christian denominations come together to show God's love to a hurting world. I center my faith journey in the Anabaptist tradition, attending the Nappanee Brethren in Christ Church in Nappanee Indiana. Interested in knowing more? Go to www.bic-church.org. I teach Leadership courses for a university on the west coast and I have a personal discipleship ministry based on the idea of "nachfolge" or "to follow Christ." Hence the name of my blog. I hope others will join me in exploring what it means to follow Christ and how our commitment as Christ's disciples might just change the world. |
