Autorenporträt
Rev. Dr. John Cleghorn is the head of staff at Caldwell Presbyterian, Charlotte, a congregation that has grown thirty-fold since almost closing its doors in 2008 and is now one of the PCUSA's most diverse, intersectional congregations. Caldwell Presbyterian Church is the author's first and only pastoral call. Prior to entering ministry, he was a senior vice president at Bank of America, where he served in a range of communications and policy roles over eighteen years. Before joining the bank, he was a reporter and columnist for the Charlotte Observer for six years, chiefly covering business.
