I help Queer Christians, their friends and family connect more deeply with Christ and each other so that they can live with abundant joy, loving God and neighbor with heart, soul, mind, and strength. As a gay contemplative, I have a special interest in walking with people who are interested in overcoming shame, overcoming religious trauma, and integrating their sexuality and their spiritual practices. I am currently writing a book and gathering community aimed to help Queer Christians make better sexual decisions through Ignatian spirituality and the construction of a personal sexual ethic. A former evangelical, I worshipped as an Episcopalian for almost 30 years. After a period of deconstruction and reconstruction, I joined a radically affirming, progressive United Methodist congregation where I am a cantor and occasionally preach. Having spent years in seminary, I found my true calling as a spiritual director through Oasis Ministries for Spiritual Development where I have completed three years of hands-on training and have been employed as a group facilitator. I have lived with my Buddhist husband for 26 wonderful years. We now reside in central New Jersey with two boy cats, one of which is my faithful companion in my online spiritual direction practice.
