Welcome. I am an ordained minister as well as a trauma-informed spiritual care educator, consultant, and veteran-focused ministry specialist with advanced training and education in pastoral counseling, chaplaincy, community care, criminal justice, and theology. My work focuses on helping churches, chaplains, counseling professionals, and faith-based organizations develop compassionate, trauma-informed approaches to spiritual care, crisis response, and resilience.
I hold graduate degrees in Pastoral Counseling, Chaplaincy, Community Care and Counseling, and Criminal Justice, along with a Doctor of Education and a Doctor of Ministry in Bible Exposition. A former U.S. Army Combat Medical Specialist, civilian first responder, and disaster relief chaplain, I draw from both academic study and lived experience, specializing in the intersection of trauma, spirituality, moral injury, and pastoral support for veterans and individuals facing crisis or life transition.
Through consulting, teaching, workshops, and educational resources, I equip leaders and organizations with practical tools for trauma-informed ministry, spiritual resilience, crisis care, and compassionate support systems. My approach combines theological depth, counseling insight, and real-world application in ways that are thoughtful, grounded, and accessible. My mission is to help churches and faith-based organizations care well for spiritually and emotionally wounded people with wisdom, integrity, and hope.
Theologix is therefore intended to be an educational resource aimed at helping individuals become more informed about the connection between scripture and everyday life. The site itself is a continuous source of information that will evolve and grow over time. The content is focused on topics surrounding mental and behavioral health, spirituality, faith, trauma, moral injury, as well as crime and justice. The information found on this site will be biblically sound, evidence based, spiritually focused, and trauma informed.
The concept comes from the foundational doctrine that “All scripture is breathed out by God and profitable for teaching, for reproof, for correction, and for training in righteousness” (2 Timothy 3:16), and its purpose is rooted in passages like Colossians 1:28 which states, “Him we proclaim, warning everyone and teaching everyone with all wisdom, that we may present everyone mature in Christ.” I believe this is important because the Bible also warns us that people will be fooled by “plausible arguments” (Colossians 2:4) and intentionally confused by teachings created through cunning human craftiness and deceitful schemes (Ephesians 4:14). In addition, scriptures like Romans 16:17-18 point out that even other believers will corrupt biblical doctrines for their own benefit using “smooth words and flattering speech.” Therefore, we must “See to it that no one takes you captive by philosophy and empty deceit, according to human tradition, according to the elemental spirits of the world, and not according to Christ” (Colossians 2:8).
