I am a pastor, a blogger, a Mental Health Worker, a father and a husband who is passionate about God’s kingdom and about people. For years I have been fighting burn out in ministry while trying to find a balance between my daily job, my family time, my ministry and my studies. There is just a lot happening in my life now.
I am originally from Brazil, have lived in South Africa for 13 years and am living in New Zealand for 2 and a half years. I have been a full time pastor for almost 15 years and at the moment I am specializing in Mental Health support.
My biggest passion is in writing, but guess what? English is my second language, and because of that you might find some Portuguese posts lost around, but the main language of the blog is English.
I have two Theology degrees and my main is in the history of the church. I, at times feel super shy about sharing history in depth because I generally deal with people that have a simpler view of Theology, and I don’t like showing off knowledge. In that, I have realized sharing a bit more of knowledge can be helpful to people. That’s my second balance I am trying to find in life.
