I have 17 1/2 years of experience in full-time pastoral ministry. I am also a writer- of creative liturgies, blogs, poems, skits and dramas, book reviews, articles, curriculum and almost anything else I choose to, or am invited, to tackle. I am an eclectic reader and thinker, committed to doing theology/spirituality "outside the box". I am an educator of youth, in the church, and a mentor to young adults. I have taught in an academic setting and offered many studies, workshops, small group learning opportunities and retreats. I offer spiritual/pastoral conversation and have provided intentional spiritual guidance. As the church and as society evolves, I want to do more to build connections and networks to empower those struggling in today's economy and those wanting to make a better world for all. I also intend to find a way to publish -electronically perhaps- selected prayers, liturgies and sermons/reflections, as well as to pursue other creative and reflective writing projects.Specialties: liturgy, adult education, liberation and feminist theology, spiritual accompaniment and guidance to those in and outside the institutional church, progressive spiritual resources, writing, pastoral care and small group ministry, , connecting social justice and spirituality
