(Bio that will be used only for this event)
LeatherChaplain is a progressive Christian monastic with a liberal stance, having transitioned from Catholicism to Protestantism. Currently undergoing ordination in a forward-thinking Christian denomination, they specialize in offering pastoral care within the kink and polyamorous communities while spearheading innovative approaches to digital ministry. A graduate of Phillips Theological Seminary, LeatherChaplain, who identifies with the Right-Side-of-the-Slash, embraces a Smart-Ass Masochist (SAM) persona.
In the realm of education, LeatherChaplain conducts classes addressing topics such as religious trauma and sexuality. Their webinars skillfully deconstruct scripture through a trauma-informed lens, accompanied by a dash of scandal and salaciousness. Past engagements include serving on the Unitarian Universalist's Leather and Grace Steering Committee, co-hosting an Ethically Non-Monogamous Christian social group, and moderating the Christians & BDSM group on Fetlife. Since 2006, they have embraced a kinky and ethically non-monogamous lifestyle, embodying a unique blend of spirituality and personal identity.
