Queer Religion
Speaking Engagements
I am available for speaking engagements for churches, organizations, focus groups, or any other religious organization. I specialize in queer theology and spirituality. I am excited to work with your organization to bring about a more peaceful and just world.
“The theological scandal is that bodies speak, and God speaks through them....the realization that human beings need to accept that they exist only in the image of God, could also mean to realize that Queerness is something that belongs to God, and that people are divinely Queer by grace.”
Religious Trauma.
Do you have religious trauma related to being queer? Would you like to talk with someone who has that experience as well or who has deep theological training on how to combat the harm of religious institutions? Reach out and we can talk!
Please note I am not a therapist or a mental health professional. I offer this service free of charge for my expertise in theology as well as for providing a comforting person to listen to.
Qualifications
I hold a bachelor’s degree in theology from Hardin-Simmons University, a Masters of Theological Studies from Southern Methodist University, and a Masters of Sacred Theology degree from Boston University. In addition, I have a graduate certificate in Gender and Sexuality from Boston University. My research and theological inquiry are in queer religion and especially queer religious experience. I have the lived experience of being a transgender, non-binary person who has been deeply wounded by the church and whose evangelical past has been a source of immense pain. My hope is that this pain is used to bring life and liberty to others!
