My name is Peter Roessner. I am the pastor of missional and community formation at Bethany Community Church in St Catharines ON, Canada. I am also currently pursuing a doctorate of practical theology degree from McMaster Divinity College. Figs & Barley is a little corner of the web that I set up in order to wrestle through what it means to flourish as human beings in a 21-Century Western context; to ask the question (in many different ways) what it looks like to live a Jesus-(in)formed life.
Beyond the vocational & educational, I am married to my wife Becky and we have two little girls Jedda & Hadley. We live in a quaint abode, and I enjoy making and drinking espresso-based beverages, reading, writing and contemplating life (among other cliché things a pastoral doctorate student enjoys).
