Host Marlena Willis talks with E.N. Hill, who describes themselves as a black, gay, gender non-binary, Christ-loving non-Christian. They practice a family of religious diversity: God as father, the earth and earth-based practices as mother, Buddhism as lover, and African spiritual practices as grandparents. From a military background, now called to be a minister, they see their role as modeling unapologetic loving of themselves.
E.N. (pronounced as ee-ahn) is a second-year Masters of Divinity student focusing on Buddhism & Unitarian Universalist Ministry at Starr King School for the Ministry in Berkeley, CA. They are also working as the Founding Director and Spiritual Care Advisor of SPARK Collective Living, a housing commune based in East Oakland.
