In addition to writing only and for other print publications, he has also contributed to several book. His new book , “The Cost of Community: Jesus, St. Francis & Life in the Kingdom”, is an exploration of the Sermon on the Mount as a model for the spiritual and missional formation of Christian communities.

Kim & I (Jamie) could not continue in the ministry God has called us to without the prayer and support from people like you. While we continue to find ways to live more simply and subsidizemissionary income through other means, we still rely on your generosity in this work. The nature of our ministry in this inner city community requires a level of time and energy that has not allowed us to be fully bi-vocational. We would like to ask you to prayerfully consider becoming part of our prayer & financial support team.
