Creating Safe Spaces for Spiritual Awakening

Kevin R Scott is a pastor, author, and leader with an extensive history of creating safe spaces for people to experience spiritual healing, awakening, and transformation. He has done this through his writing, his teaching, his professional career, and most importantly, in his personal and professional relationships.

Kevin got his start in the evangelical Christian community in America. But in the late 1990s, he began a spiritual journey that eventually led to his alienation from it. Known as a free, progressive thinker, who often tested the beliefs and boundaries of his faith community, Kevin found himself increasingly dissociated from evangelical Christianity—and at the same time discovered a growing affinity with a broader, more inclusive spirituality.

Now Kevin is passionate about creating safe spaces for people who are on their own spiritual journey to a more inclusive Christian faith, especially those who are LGBTQ and their allies. He is committed to supporting you in your own unique spiritual journey—wherever that may lead—without pressure or judgment.

I Coach.

There is perhaps nothing I value more than the opportunity to sit with a person or group to help them discover their next steps in their spiritual journey.

I Speak.

I have had the privilege of speaking to many thousands of pastors and laypeople at local churches, regional worships, and national conferences.

I Write.

As a writer, editor, and published author, I have a wealth of experience in writing books, training materials, devotions, and other spiritual resources.

We Need to Talk About Transgender Rights
