    Commonplace starts this Saturday.

    For a long time, I’ve felt the tension between writing quickly and writing carefully. Between producing content and actually saying something worth sitting with. Commonplace is my way of slowing that down. This will be a weekly space for reflections on faith, formation, leadership, fatherhood, culture, and the ordinary moments where God is quietly at work. Just thoughtful writing meant to be read with a cup of coffee and revisited later. There’s also something practical worth naming: Commonplace will replace my normal blog posts on my website. Instead of scattering thoughts across platforms, everything will live here, in one place. Historically, a commonplace book was where people collected ideas, quotes, prayers, and observations that shaped how they lived. That’s the spirit behind this space. I want this to be a place with more substance. Words meant to form, not just inform. The first post drops this Saturday. If you’ve followed along with my writing, sermons, or podcasts over the years, I’d love for you to join me here. https://commonplaceweekly.substack.com/p/commonplace-starts-this-saturday?r=4lns8o&utm_campaign=post&utm_medium=web&triedRedirect=true

    Stop Uprooting Your Faith (Unless God Says Go)

    In this episode of Diving Deeper, Lucas unpacks what it really means to be rooted in Christ. Using the simple but powerful truth — “if you’re rootless, you’re fruitless” — he explores how spiritual growth doesn’t happen when we keep uprooting ourselves every time life gets uncomfortable. Lucas shares personal updates, stories from his own move, and challenges listeners to put down roots that last: in God’s Word, in community, and in mission. He also gets honest about how division over personal preferences can distract from truth and reminds us what it means to be fishers of men. This is a practical, heartfelt episode for anyone who wants their faith to grow deeper and bear real fruit.

    When the End Becomes an Idol

    What happens when our obsession with the end times overshadows our call to live faithfully right now? In this episode of Diving Deeper, Lucas takes a hard look at our cultural moment: the assassination of Charlie Kirk, viral rapture predictions, debates over Israel, annihilationism, and the differing views of the millennium. With scripture, history, and real-world examples, he unpacks how eschatology can become an idol — whether by idolizing the future and neglecting the present, or idolizing the present and forgetting the future. From Erika Kirk’s public forgiveness at Charlie’s memorial, to the dangers of date-setting and false doctrines, to the beauty of the kingdom that is already here and not yet complete — this episode calls believers back to the center: Jesus.

    Life Goes Fast: Circling Time, Generations, and Revival

    What do kids on bikes, multigenerational churches, and revival in the UK have in common? More than you think. In this episode of Ordinary Saints, Lucas talks honestly about the tension of wanting to grow up when we’re young and wanting to go back once we’re old. He explores how the gospel reframes time, why the family of God needs every generation at the table, and what the recent rise in young adult church attendance in the UK might mean for us here. Life goes fast—but it doesn’t have to be wasted.

And while counseling can be a gift, it can’t do what our souls are ultimately longing for. In this episode of Diving Deeper: Ordinary Saints, Lucas unpacks: Why therapy has stepped into a priest-like role in our culture The growing epidemic of loneliness and what the Church is called to offer instead The search for purpose in a world that measures identity by productivity With Scripture, cultural insights, and practical takeaways, this conversation reminds us that while therapy may help us manage life, only Jesus gives us the reason to live. 📌 Ordinary faith. Everyday saints. Real hope.

    What Your Capacity Can’t Carry (Season 2 Premiere)

    Welcome to Season 2 of Diving Deeper. We’re starting this new chapter with a raw conversation about leadership, burnout, and the lie that you have to do it all. Whether you're a pastor, parent, or just someone trying to keep up, this episode explores the difference between what you can carry and what God’s actually calling you to carry. We’ll look at the story of Moses in Exodus 18, unpack why rest isn’t weakness, and talk through what healthy leadership really looks like in ministry, life, and fatherhood. Let’s reset the pace, realign the weight, and remember:Just because you can carry it doesn’t mean you’re supposed to.

    bible in a year [week 42 & 43]

    Exile and Hope: Lamentations, Jeremiah, and Ezekiel (Week 42-43) This week, we journey through the heartache of exile and the unshakable hope of restoration. Starting with Lamentations, we feel the weight of Jerusalem's fall and the cry of God's people. From there, we delve into Jeremiah’s warnings and his heartbreaking prophecies. Yet, even in the darkest moments, God’s promises of restoration shine through. In Ezekiel, we explore powerful visions of judgment and renewal, setting the stage for hope on the horizon. Alongside these prophetic books, we find timeless truths in 1 and 2 Peter, reminding us of God’s call to perseverance in the midst of suffering. Join us for a deep dive into these challenging yet hopeful passages as we reflect on God’s unwavering faithfulness. Let these scriptures remind you that no matter the season, God’s redemptive plan is always at work. Scripture for the Week: Lamentations Jeremiah 40-51 Obadiah Ezekiel 1-15 1 Peter 4-5, 2 Peter 1-3 Psalms 137, 147, 80, 82, 83, 136 Hope, restoration, and the promise of new life – it’s all here.
