Greetings

My name is Stephen Lawson.
I'm a native Kentuckian, but I am currently south of my homeland while I attend graduate school at Emmanuel School of Religion in Johnson City, Tennessee. I am studying Christian Doctrine. My interests are in contextual and liberation theologies, ecclesiology, sustainability, theological politics and community formation.

I also love Appalachian music and Kentucky bourbon.
