Preaching & Beaching
…Finding God on this side of the rainbow…
Hi! I’m Anthony! I’m an openly gay Teacher, Preacher, Pastor, Prophet, and Baker, riding the waves of Life’s journey — on a search for God on this side of the rainbow!
Greetings & God’s richest blessings to you!
This site is a safe-space! As The United Church of Christ often says; I, too, am proud to say:
“No Matter who you are or where you are on life’s journey, you are welcome here!”
Welcome to Preach’n & Beach’n, a vibrant sanctuary where faith, authenticity, and the serene beauty of the beach come together in perfect harmony. As an openly gay UCC pastor on the journey to ordination, I invite you to join me in exploring the rich tapestry of spirituality, identity, and community. Here, you’ll find updates on my personal journey, reflections on the challenges and triumphs of faith, and a celebration of love in all its forms.
The beach is not just my favorite place; it’s where I connect most deeply with the Divine. The sound of the waves, the warmth of the sun, and the vastness of the horizon remind me of the infinite grace that surrounds us. This sacred space inspires my spiritual growth and serves as a backdrop for profound reflections on what it means to live a life of faith and authenticity.
In 2025, I’ll be launching a podcast that dives even deeper into these themes, inviting meaningful conversations about faith, identity, and community. Each year, I also share a heartfelt Christmas story letter that captures the joy and warmth of the season through my unique lens.
Whether you’re seeking inspiration, a sense of belonging, or simply a moment of peace by the shore, Preach’n & Beach’n is your haven. Together, let’s navigate this journey of faith and connection to the Divine—one wave at a time.
