God is rapidly urbanizing the world. For the first time in human history, more people live in cities than in rural areas. Followers of Jesus must learn how to navigate through the complexities of urban life. This blog documents my urban adventures both in Pittsburgh and in cities around the world. This is my personal blog, and my views may not necessarily reflect the views of North Way Christian Community, Bakke Graduate University, or any other organizations.

Martin Luther
He stands out to me because his work has endured for a long time, he loved to have fun, and he had an active mind (he wrote a full length book about every two weeks during his prime). He was also connected to the poor while speaking truth to the powerful establishment. So, I would say his personality and lifestyle impact me most, although his doctrinal ideas obviously have impacted me as well. I need to make sure that I have fun in ministry, and I also am encouraged that it is perfectly acceptable to have an active mind like mine. It can be a gift to others (although many will not want to listen).
