Never one to simply accept things as they are, Nick has always questioned the status quo. This curiosity and quest for answers has led him to research a variety of cultural and faith-based issues.

Progressive and inquisitive by nature, Nick doesn’t stray from difficult discussions or truths, and often provides a new understanding that readers may not have previously known.
