A BRIEF BIO…
Adam is the founding Senior Pastor of Aletheia Church in Boston, MA — a multi-site, diverse church passionately committed to bringing the truth, grace, and the changing power of the Gospel for the glory of God and the good of all people.
Adam is married to his lovely wife, Hope,an amazing photographer, full-time educator, small-business owner, and mom extraordinaire. About 4 months after marriage, they were radically and unexpectedly called into ministry, moving them to Edinburgh, Scotland, to help plant two new churches. For five years, they labored alongside a great team, had two more children, and saw God do amazing things. Today, there stand two new churches where there were none — an extraordinary grace — thriving under great leaders.
In 2010, they planted Aletheia Church in Boston. Fueled by a passion for God’s truth and grace, Aletheia began in their living room and has not ceased to grow and reach those who were once far from God. Adam now leads a diverse, disciple-making team that leads the church with him.
Completing Master’s Degrees from Reformed Theological Seminary (M.A.) and Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary (Th.M.), a D.Min from Gordon-Conwell, and a Ph.D. from The University of Aberdeen, he now serves on the faculty of Every Nation Seminary as the Professor of Theology and Biblical Studies. In demand worldwide as a teacher and preacher, he has also written a few books, such as The Art of Rest: Faith to Hit Pause in a World that Never Stops, Stop Taking Sides: How Truth in Tension Saves Us from Anxiety and Outrage, and When God Seems Gone: Finding Hope when Nothing Makes Sense.
Adam lives in Boston with his lovely wife, Hope. They have four awesome children: Alanna, Nora, Cole, and Wyatt.
