About Me
I have a diverse spiritual background. I’ve been involved in the following denominations over the years: Southern Baptist, Pentecostal, Charismatic, Independent, Non-Denominational, Association of Vineyard Churches, The Episcopal Church USA, and Catholic. My journey in and through each of these faith groups has led to my spiritual growth, through the good and bad. I’m very eclectic in my faith, which makes it difficult to place definitive labels on my spirituality. In my spiritual journey I have found myself to become very ecumenical, inclusive, and open to others of differing faiths/beliefs, Christian and Non-Christian alike. Recently I have returned to attend university to finish my education by pursuing a double major in philosophy and theology. Once finished with my undergraduate work my intentions are to go on from there to pursue my Ph.D in the discipline of philosophy. My interest are in comparative religions, eastern philosophy and spiritual practice, as well as human consciousness.
