A preliminary basic information page
(Last updated: May 17, 2024)
The Infinitus Ministries is a collective brand name for three distinct components:
- Infinitus Explorations (IX): a fee-based, personalized spiritual direction practice tailored to neurodivergent individuals, open to anyone of any or no religious affiliation.
- Infinitus Resources and Media (IRM): non-sectarian educational resources for church leaders who would like a greater inclusion of neurodiversity in the life and leadership of their communities. IRM is also home to other educational content such as the "Little Free Seminary."
- Infinitus Community (IC): a post-denominational, post-evangelical, and prophetic Christian church rooted in the life and culture of neurodiversity.
The Infinitus Community is a newly emerging community of faith and spiritual life that has emerged from the lived experiences of neurodivergence. This is the next step in my vision for ministry that began in 2019. We are non-denominational/post-denominational, independent, and autonomous.
The Infinitus seeks to be a "hybrid" and "decentralized" community. This means there will be both virtual and in-person manifestations of the Infinitus and as we grow as a community, leadership and management of localized communal expressions will be in the hands of local members.
To become part of this community, we have a private Matrix space (with purpose-built rooms), which is invitation-only at this time. In addition, we maintain an open, public chat room.
As we are still in the early stage of development, please check back to learn more about Infinitus and its visions and missions.

The public chat previously on chatango.com is now on Internet Relay Chat (IRC)! IRC is a classic Internet technology that is cross-platform, lightweight, and simple. You can access IRC from practically any computing platform, including Android, iOS, Linux, Windows, MacOS, and even from a Web browser.

Keep in mind that IRC chat is open and public to all at all times, and is not E2E encrypted (including direct messages). Any private and sensitive conversations, including anything that includes personally identifiable information, should be moved to Matrix (for group conversations) or to a secure messenger such as XMPP (with OMEMO enabled), Signal, TeleGuard, or Telegram.

Infinitus Community, while closely related to my spiritual direction practice formerly known as Mind Geographic and now known as Infinitus Explorations, is a separate work. While the latter is more of a fee-based business operation, the former is meant to be community-driven. It is also hoped that income from the latter will help finance the former.
