WELCOME TO COMMON GROUND

Common Ground is a community for people who want honest faith and real conversation. No performance, no pretending—just coffee and open dialogue about faith, purpose, and life.

I'm Chris. I spent over 20 years as a pastor before chronic illness and burnout led me out of vocational ministry. I still believe in God. I'm just trying to learn what honest faith looks like.

I started Common Ground because I know I'm not alone in this. And neither are you.

WHO THIS IS FOR:
• People tired of performing in church
• Those navigating change or transition
• Anyone with honest questions about faith
• People hurt by the church but not ready to give up on God
• Those looking for authentic community

WHAT WE DO:
☕ Daily coffee reflections
💬 Open conversations about faith, doubt, purpose, life
🤝 Peer support \(we're figuring this out together\)
📖 Biblical wisdom without the baggage

You don't have to have it all together. Just show up as you are.

Pull up a chair. Make some coffee. You're home.
