I’m a pilgrim, a husband, father and grandfather, former active duty U.S. Marine, law enforcement chaplain,  follower of Jesus Christ, a pastor and Orthodox christian in exile. I’m completely convinced that Jesus Christ has risen from the dead, trampling down death by death, and upon those in the tombs bestowing life – and is humanity’s only hope. Someday, He shall reign for ever and ever.

Pilgrim in Exile provides a writing outlet where I can record thoughts and insights about my journey with Christ and other things I feel like writing about – because I think and process best through talking and writing. If visitors happen to find what I write helpful or interesting, I’m glad.
