toward a new wineskin.

theology
Storytelling has been central to my own life and to the lives of the students, young adults, and mentors I’ve walked alongside. As someone navigating faith and life with a marginalized identity, I’ve witnessed firsthand how sharing our stories can reclaim dignity, foster connection, and illuminate the beauty of resilience. The stories of my students and colleagues—often forged in the crucible of adversity—have taught me that our narratives are not just personal; they are communal treasures that shape how we see God, ourselves, and the world.
The R.E.S.T. Mixtape Hub is a digital sanctuary for exploring the intersection of culture, spirituality, philosophy, and theology rooted in the traditions of the hush harbor and hip-hop. Here, storytelling becomes a form of resistance, a means of reimagining faith, and a new wineskin for holding the treasures salvaged from the shipwreck of faith.

People do not put new wine into old wineskins.
Otherwise, the skins burst, the wine spills out, and the skins are ruined. Rather, they pour new wine into fresh wineskins, and both are preserved.”
-Jesus of Nazareth
THE 4 COMPONENTS
Radical Truth-Telling: Naming What’s Real
Emphasizing honesty and vulnerability as essential practices for personal and communal transformation. Radical Truth-Telling challenges us to name what is real, uncover what is hidden, and hold space for complexity.
Radical Ethics: Harmony By Any Means Necessary
Ethics grounded in non-duality, not just interconnectedness but utter non-separateness. At the radical root of ethics is the recognition that no being is wholly separate, inviting practices of mutual responsibility and compassion.
Cosmotheandric Spirituality: God is All in All
A spirituality that embraces the mystery of “God is all in all,” holding the tension of uniqueness and universalism, transcendence and reason. This perspective invites intimacy without shame, belonging without flawlessness, and humanity in the fullness of limitation and vulnerability.
Ethnographic Tradition: Wisdom Rides Tradition Like A Wave
The foundation for meaning-making, spirituality, and hope. Ethnographic Tradition provides the language and wisdom needed to transcend empire and oppression, rooting us in stories and practices that affirm our humanity and collective possibility.
