I have had the privilege to speak and share my passion to groups all over Canada and the United States. Whether I’m standing in front of a few thousand people or sitting in a circle with one or two, my goal is to create a comfortable and safe space for people to learn and grow. I currently offer classes in the areas of spirituality, sexuality, and culture, and love to work with organizers to customize the perfect learning experience for their event or group.

Spirituality
As someone who has been defined as an “outlaw preacher”, I have a deep desire to return to what I believe is the core of Jesus’ teaching: a way of life founded on inclusion, love and grace. My heart is to make connections with those that are broken and hurting and help them live into right relationships with themselves, those around them, their world, and their Creator – to help people see that, in the words of Bruce Cockburn, “Love loves you too.”
Some of the spirituality classes I have presented are:
- Male and Female God Created Them: The Image of God in Humanity
- Living into Right Relationships: Reconnection and Reconciliation
- Messy Spirituality: Grace in the Midst of Life
- The Upside-Down Realm: The Unbelievable Love of God
- Unending Rhythm: Playing In-tune with God’s Symphony
Remember, if you are interested in something not on the list, please contact me.
Sexuality
I believe with all my heart that our sexuality is a beautiful and inextricable part of who we are as human beings. Unfortunately, our understanding and celebration of it in the western world has become twisted by religious puritanism, devalued by popular media, and in many cases destroyed by abuse and heartache. My goal is to see people realize the fullness of who they are as sexual beings in healthy, fulfilling expressions. I have presented workshops tailored for religious communities, the kink and BDSM community, and even one-on-one training.
Please contact me to discuss the different kinds of sexuality-related education I can share with you.
Culture
I admit it: I’m a bit of a culture geek. Looking at and learning about the different ways that people interact with each other and the motivations behind that excites me. I’m especially passionate about the shift going on in our western world from modernity to post-modernity (which is just a fancy way of saying “from the way things were to the way things are going to be”). A lot of people find this transition time frustrating or even scary. I love to work with all kinds of groups to help them find their path as they navigate their way through this changing world.
Some groups I have presented to on emerging culture include:
- volunteer organizations
- corporate boards
- churches
- non-profit organizations
- community groups
Send me an e-mail telling me about the type and needs of your group, and we can discuss how I can work with you to help you forge your path into the emerging world.
