I'm a progressive Christian minister offering commentary on interfaith, spiritual, theological and socio-cultural issues. I bring a practical, positive, progressive, and pluralistic Christian perspective raising awareness of and promoting God's Spirit of love, equality, and justice. I'm striving to cultivate a Christian faith that embraces plurality, engages the other, and lives in the questions.

Newly elected Bishop also Embraces Buddhism
"Episcopal bishop-elect of Northern Michigan, who's come under fire from conservatives for his simultaneous embrace of Zen Buddhism." This speaks to the increasingly common modern/postmodern phenomenon of multiple religious identities and its controversial status among a certain sector of our population. Daniel Burke of the RNS has the story.
