For those who didn’t see the livestream, I’m leaving YouTube for a while for the reasons stated there.

I want to say a sincere thank you to my supporters for your patience and support, it really means a lot.

I was genuinely excited to keep making content and had a lot of ideas lined up, but unfortunately I need to take a step back.

Thank you again for all the support.

God bless

I haven’t uploaded in a while due to some mental health difficulties. I initially hoped I’d be back sooner, but it’s taken longer than expected to properly reset.

I appreciate your patience and hope to return to posting more consistently when I’m in a better place to do so.

In apologetics and intellectual spaces, it’s easy to fall into a subtle but harmful trap: the idea that our value as human beings depends on our output, our originality, our ranking, our place on some imaginary tier list. That way of thinking doesn’t just tempt us toward pride; it also teaches us to quietly despise ourselves when we fail to meet those standards.

But this is not a Christian view of the human person.

A child who dies before contributing a single original idea to the world is still infinitely valuable. So are the countless people who live and die without public recognition, intellectual distinction, or cultural impact. Their worth was never conditional on achievement.

I unknowingly absorbed these non-Christian values into my own thinking, and they severely damaged my mental health.

God does not value you because you are exceptional by worldly standards. He values you because He made you, knows you, and loves you. You are already special, already unique, already worth infinite dignity before you prove anything at all.

Something I find interesting in online apologetics is the tension apologists must navigate between being entertaining and being genuinely educational.

Lean too far toward entertainment (which unfortunately I think many online apologists do) and the result is content that lacks real intellectual substance. Apologetics then risks becoming little more than a popularity driven spectacle.

Lean too far in the opposite direction however and the content can become inaccessible or irrelevant to a broader audience.
