Q: What are your community’s greatest challenges?
A: How do you inspire and cultivate religious devotion without effacing complexity and depth.

Q: Who inspires you and in what way?
A: My grandmother – her breadth of knowledge always moves me to want to learn more. I hear her voice when I write my sermons – are they bold enough?  Or fresh and honest enough?

Q: What are the greatest opportunities that exist for your community?
A: Our neighborhood will be doubling in population in the next decade. It presents an amazing growth opportunity.  Life is always moving.  I hope we always leverage the opportunities life presents.
