I moved to Dallas, Texas in 2008 to help form Storyline Christian Community, a network of missional communities which I affectionately refer to as missional research and development (i.e., we fail a lot…and that’s a good thing!). I have a doctorate in Contextual Theology and I’m particularly passionate about practicing contemplative spirituality, forming creative expressions of Christian community, and healing spiritual trauma. I am certified in Strategies for Trauma Awareness and Resilience (STAR) through the Center for Justice and Peacebuilding at Eastern Mennonite University. I am coauthor with Elaine Heath of Trauma-Informed Evangelism: Cultivating Communities of Wounded Healers, which addresses how to love neighbors well who have religious trauma. I’m married to Julie and we’ve got three great kids and a Boston Terrier named Gus. https://www.charleskiser.com/services daily 0.75 2023-07-06 https://www.charleskiser.com/newsletter daily 0.75 2023-07-06 https://www.charleskiser.com/store daily 0.75 2023-03-11 https://www.charleskiser.com/home daily 1.0 2023-07-06 https://images.squarespace-cdn.com/content/v1/627c2854d3b2ab1c4fe3caf9/479b6d3f-62fe-4a22-ba85-6daa7816f0b1/Trauma+Informed+Evangelism+Cover Home
