Yale, is an ordained Disciples of Christ minister and Hebrew Bible scholar. His scholarship is focused on his faith commitments to social and ecological justice, mission, and ecumenism.

Dr. Sharon Watkins, General Minister and President of the Christian Church (Disciples of Christ). He blogs for Huffington Post, speaks at church gatherings throughout the US and Canada, and has written articles and Bible lessons for scholarly and popular publication.

The Christian Church (Disciples of Christ) is a mainline Protestant denomination born on the American frontier among Presbyterians and others who rejected the sectarian divisions of European churches and sought fellowship around a common table open to all who profess faith in Jesus Christ. The Lord’s Supper is central to their worship every Sunday. Ecumenism and a deep commitment to mission in partnership with other churches throughout the world lie at the heart of Disciples self-understanding. Disciples in the US and Canada are currently meeting in their biennial General Assembly this week in Columbus.
