Teaching & Practitioner-in-Residence

Sermons shouldn't end on Sunday.
Neither should the classroom.

I teach and build at the intersection of practical theology and discipleship infrastructure — bringing real, cross-congregational data into a field that usually works from a single pulpit's experience.

The Gap

Almost nobody brings a live, multi-church data system into the classroom.

Practical theology has a rich tradition of studying formation after it happens, one room at a time. I do it differently, because I built the infrastructure to track what happens between one Sunday and the next, across every church and every next-generation cohort I work with, not just the one I'm standing in front of.

Two Ways to Bring This In

3–5 day residencies, offered individually or as a paired sequence.

Course 1 · Multiply + Dream Chaser Kids

Instrumented Discipleship

Building formation systems that outlast the room

Formation across generations — sermon-to-practice engagement data from Multiply, paired with validated next-gen outcome data from Dream Chaser Kids. Students design their own three-part discipleship system, tested against real data instead of theory alone.

Course 2 · Immerse + Community Playbook

Reading the Neighborhood

Community discernment as pastoral practice

From guessing at a ZIP code's needs to reading it with rigor. Students run a live neighborhood snapshot, layer local story onto the data, and design a partnership strategy grounded in what's actually there.

Teaching Philosophy

"I ask questions before I give answers. That's not a classroom technique for me, it's how I lead everywhere. A question that's alive in a room does more formation than a conclusion handed down."

The Evidence

Four platforms. One instrumentation discipline.

Multiply, Immerse, Community Playbook, and Dream Chaser Kids aren't four separate projects. They're the same practice — build the system, measure what actually happens, let the data hold up to outside scrutiny — applied across congregations, neighborhoods, and next-generation formation.
