SUMMARY:Three Pastors Walk into a Bar
DESCRIPTION:What does it mean to be the church in the current political climate? \nHow do our faith and beliefs inform our political and social ideology? \nWhat is God calling us to right now? \nThese are the kinds of questions I’ve been batting around with my clergy friends recently. Rev. Preston Clegg of Second Baptist\, Rev. Kate Alexander of Christ Episcopal\, and I have been wrestling with what it means to be Christian these days. We haven’t found any definitive answers\, but because our churches are neighbors\, we thought we’d invite our churches to have these conversations together. \nLast year\, we started holding events for all three of our churches to come together\, and we have decided to continue them into 2026. During these events\, Preston\, Kate\, and I will start with a discussion on our topic and open it up for reflections and questions. We’ll rotate around to each church\, and you’re invited to bring a brown-bag lunch. \nAs we were planning these events\, we said they feel like the start of an old joke\, “Three pastors walk into a bar.” So that’s what we named them. But the title is more than silly–we want this to be informal and filled with personal connection\, like you’re chatting with friends at a bar or coffee shop. Join us for rich connection and to meet our neighbor churches. Together\, we’ll experience God’s grace and discover a compelling hope.
