Progressive Christian Pastor (a Jimmy Carter Baptist, ie: CBF). I love to read, cook, do handyman stuff, discuss practical theology, try out new Brew Pubs, & play with my mini GoldenDoodle, Bono (yes, he is named after the lead singer of U2).

Excited to be back with @kfbyrd.bsky.social at Epworth By The Sea for @southernlightsconf.bsky.social: An Adventure in Progressive Christianity! My goals for this year are simple - eat good seafood, have fun with long time friends, relax, & don’t end up in the hospital (like I did last year)!

Read the sermon on the mount and ask yourself which part lines up with Christian Nationalism

Spoiler alert: none of it.
