Hi! My name is Nathan and this is my blog, "The Olive and The Oak." This site serves as a home to reflection and art centering around Christian spirituality and the person of Jesus. Everyone is welcome to join me as I celebrate beauty, press into meaning, and explore the art of living as a human being in a world made by a God who loves.
