About
that's a tall order. here are some tidbits:
i was forced to leave the church of god theological seminary in cleveland, tn for failing miserably at ex-gay therapy. (can i get a witness? shandai!) i was 8 hours away from getting a master's degree. i forgive them. but i will keep talking about it until they stop doing it to other people.
i am now a confirmed episcopalian (a "real" christian, so to speak) and it is LOVERLY to be back in nyc! i love my church, trinity wall street. and yes, i would very much like to become a priest.
i believe god's love is for ALL people. i'm not out to convert you. ewww!
i had a career as an actor before aspiring to the priesthood, and i toured with the 2001 godspell national tour. if you are clever you can find me on itunes!
i believe in civil disobedience. i believe in revolutionaries. i believe god can change the world through us. me and jesus are super tight...
i'm quitting smoking for lent...smoke-free by easter! can he do it? tune in folks...
