Some things you cannot work out alone.
I am Richmond — a pastor of more than twenty years, across ten countries. This is where I write, teach, and sit down with people one at a time.

The Christian Spiritual Reset
Some seasons do not call for another book. They call for somewhere to stop.
This is a guided retreat you take at home, at whatever pace your life allows — video teaching, guided prayers, timers to hold the silence for you, and printable workbooks, all read online. It opens with membership at US$19 a month, and you can stop whenever you need to.

One honest hour
A private conversation, online, wherever you are. No church membership required, and you do not have to arrive with faith intact.
Before
You write to me
You answer a few questions in writing — where you are, what happened, what you're carrying. I read it and pray over it before we ever meet.
The hour
We talk
Sixty minutes, face to face over video. Mostly I listen. Where scripture speaks to what you're facing, I'll bring it — plainly, not as a lecture.
After
I write back
Within 24 hours: what I heard, passages to sit with, and two or three concrete next steps. Something to return to later.
