I am just a fellow living in Texas, happy to have a wonderful wife, family, and job. A believer in God, in a confessionally reformed, Westminster Confession of Faith sort of way. Resting solely in the completed work of the Son through faith. I happen to like reading, writing, photography and most things space.

Why This Site Exists
"What is the chief end of man?" "Man's chief end is to glorify God, and to enjoy Him forever." That answer from the Westminster Shorter Catechism (Q. 1) has anchored my life, and it is the reason this site exists. I built rfrmd.com because I wanted a place where the truths of the Reformation could be shared simply, from a phone or a tablet, with anyone the Lord might draw to them. Every page here is an attempt to point back to the word of God, not away from it.
I am not a seminary professor or a pastor/teaching elder. I am an ordained ruling elder in the Orthodox Presbyterian Church who loves the Lord, loves His church, and wants to be useful. My theological convictions are rooted in the Westminster Standards, and I hold to the doctrines of grace because I believe they are what the Bible teaches and because they give all the glory for salvation to God alone, where it belongs.
If anything here helps you open your Bible, find a faithful church, or see the beauty of the gospel a little more clearly, then this site has done what I hoped it would do. And if you disagree with something I have written, I would simply ask what the Bereans would ask: search the Scriptures and see whether these things are so (Acts 17:11).
In the interest of honesty, I want you to know that AI tools were used in the drafting of the content on this site. You can read more about what that means and why I am telling you in A Note on How This Site Was Written.
Soli Deo Gloria
