David Abbott is the lead pastor at Trinity UMC in Fort Wayne, Indiana. He is NOT a New York Times bestselling author but his mom thinks he writes pretty good well. Time magazine has NOT recognized him as one of the most influential people in Christianity today, but his wife, Jessica, thinks he has got potential.
He is a “professional lover of God and people.” A fellow pilgrim on this “narrow road,” David is learning what it means to “unlearn” church and “re-learn” Jesus when they are not compatible. Unfortunately, too often, they are not.

"The problem is, many of the people in need of saving are in churches, and at least part of what they need saving from is the idea that God sees the world the same way they do."

What I'm Listening To
Jason Gray's CD entitled "Order, Disorder, Reorder" has been a companion on my journey over the last few years. For anyone finidng themselves asking questions, wrestling with doubts, or "deconstructing," I cannot recommend this CD enough. Especially this week's song: "Remind Me You're Here." Check it out!
