Master of Divinity
Pastoral Counselor
Texas
About Chris

Chris serves as a Pastoral Counselor at Journey and is a practical theologian focused on modern missiology (study and investigation of the mandate, message, and mission of the Christian church), modern pastoral care, and convergent practical theology (study and practice of missiology with organizational development).

With a specialized focus on the intersection of the spiritual integration of moral stress and convergent practical theology, Chris is fascinated with how Christ works through all of us today and the strength that every one of us has within to overcome even seemingly insurmountable obstacles.

Chris focuses his study and practice in helping others identify and deepen their connection to the Creator through understanding how The Devine is present in their everyday experiences. This undertaking guides and informs a pastoral response to those developing a relationship with The Devine, repairing a previous relationship, or exploring the depths of a long and solid faith. In times of trauma and moral stress, Chris leverages this blend of convergent practical theology and mental health counseling to build relationships between individuals and communities that are life-giving and healing.

He lives and works in Austin, Texas with his partner and their eight dogs, and is fluent in American Sign Language.

Chris previously served the wider church by joining congregations throughout New England, preaching on a wide variety of topics that are based in the lenses of practical theology.
