About mattfrizzellonline
Hi. I’m Matt Frizzell. I live in Chicago. I’m a dad, a friend, husband, minister, scholar on a pilgrimage. I wrestle with God about people, life, love, parenting, ministry, and the church. At my best, I’m an aspiring disciple of Jesus Christ.
I’m a full-time minister for the Community of Christ. Besides my daughters and spouse, my passions revolve around my search for community, soul searching, plumbing life’s depth of experience, reading, speaking out, camping, motorcycles, Euchre, the smell of a campfire, road trips, and music.
I hold a PhD in Theology and Ethics from Chicago Theological Seminary.
My academic interests ignite around theology and economics, ecclesiology (church), social justice – i.e. race, sex/gender, sexuality, critical social theory, and the so-called modern/postmodern divide.
mattfrizzellonline is just another reflection of me. Perhaps it’s a virtual reflection, which is always seen through a glass dimly. I hope, you find moments of thought, illumination, stimulation, or clarity while you visit.
For me, my life is a kind of unfolding whirlwind of possibilities and prayer – as well as study, people, ministry, and embodied spiritual struggle in my search for God’s ongoing revelation.
Feel free to read, comment, disagree, argue, or question. Most of all, welcome.
