The Glory of God is people who are fully alive.

Meet Michael
With 30+ years of experience providing spiritual care and support to numerous individuals and groups, I am often described as a thoughtful mystic, an accidental activist, and intuitively empathetic. I am passionate about helping folks connect with the God-who-is-love in healthy, thoughtful, and life-giving ways, helping them to experience this love in personally transforming ways.
I hold a Master of Ministry - Spiritual Formation (2011) and a Master of Arts - Theology and Culture (2024). I authored the book "Becoming Love: Avoiding Common Forms of Christian Insanity." I contributed to the book Partnering with God: , along with many faith-inspired articles, several of which have been published and referenced by various blogs, leadership and spiritual care websites. Michael serves:
- as a trained and experienced Spiritual Director
- as a trained and experienced Grief & Loss Specialist
- as a retreat leader, educator, and conference speaker
- as an Open & Relational theologian
- as a Teilhardian-inspired theologian
- Board member of the Taber Equality Alliance
- as a founder of a relational faith community in Taber, Alberta
- a co-founder, Board member, and ordained in Mosaic Ministries, Calgary
