Welcome

My name is Jacob, and I’m a writer, artist, and Anglican ordinand. I’ve been on a long journey for over twenty years, searching out “the ancient paths… where the good way is” (Jeremiah 6:16). Here you’ll find my many musings on art, imagination, liturgy, and Christian spirituality. Walk with me for a bit of the journey.
