Trinity Episcopal Church 408 N. Jefferson Ave. Pierre

Guest speaker at Clergy Conference 2024

Areas of Expertise: practical ministry, evangelism, cross-cultural ministry, social ethics, American religious history

American Christians may be fearful of the dramatic changes that have already occurred in the world and in American Christianity. Could that fear be rooted in a loss of power as the demographics of world Christianity begin to favor non-Western nations? But these changes in Christianity may be exactly what God intended, requiring American Christians to relinquish a historical dominance and embrace a greater mutuality, equality and reciprocity in twenty-first-century world Christianity.
