Beyond the Pigpen
Where faith, doubt, and evidence meet—and the road home begins.

Nowhere Else to Go
A Former TOPGUN Instructor on Faith, Science, and the Road Between
What happens when you deconstruct your faith—only to find it still there?
Part investigation, part memoir, Nowhere Else to Go examines the universe, consciousness, morality, history, Jesus, the resurrection, and the return of Christ with the discipline of a TOPGUN debrief: establish the facts, mercilessly analyze the evidence, apply the lessons learned—and move forward.
