F*ck this.

I’ve had quite a journey in the 35 years since I went forward during an altar call at my Southern Baptist church when I was 16 years old and publicly stated that I felt called to ordained ministry. I’m still not ordained, because institutions and systems are going to do what they can to protect themselves at all costs. (Stick around to learn more!)

There are many stories to tell and many adventures yet to set out upon. But I know that the path I’m on – and have been on – for the last 35 years from Southern Baptist to California Apostate to Mainline Progressive to Wayward Wanderer/Wonderer is the right path. Because nothing has fucked with my agnosticism like the people and circumstances that have popped up along the way in my journey. (Is that the Holy Spirit?)

I’m glad you’re here. I have no idea what will happen, but I hope it’ll continue to fuck with my agnosticism and that you’re ready to be in community with me as we try to make the world a better place for everyone. 

Pastor Hank

I’m gay, bitches!
