Joshua Willett
Founder of Strong & Courageous
A Brief History
Strong & Courageous was born out of a need for a creative outlet. I, Joshua Willett (author of this article), am the founder of this blog. I graduated from Seattle Pacific University with a BA in Christian Theology in June 2018. In the time that has passed since graduation, I found myself in a place I never thought I would come to; I miss writing papers. I certainly don't miss the stress of it all, but it is the creative outlet that it gave me that I ultimately miss. I had a place to flesh out all the ideas in my head and organize it for others' feedback. That is what the articles portion of this blog will be. A place for me to write about the theological concepts that I am passionate about and organize them for others' (you, the reader's!) feedback. The feedback bit is not a vain attempt to feel validated by any means, but rather a desire of my heart for conversations with people from diverse backgrounds with different opinions than my friends and I. I'll be the first to admit that I don't have it all together; I am still learning every day along with everybody else about the wonderful mysteries of God. Neither am I too proud to admit that some of my ideas and concepts about who God is, how Christians should live, and how the Church should operate could be wrong or need more careful thought.
