Episcopal Priest, Organizer, and Progressive Writer
The Rev. Nathan Empsall is the executive director of Faithful America, the largest online community of grassroots Christians putting faith into action for love and social justice — and against the religious right. As a leading expert on Christian resistance to white Christian nationalism and MAGA’s Christofascism, Rev. Nathan’s writing has appeared in Time, Newsweek, NBC News, the Daily Beast, Red Letter Christians, Religion News Service, and more.
Rev. Nathan’s motto is “God loves you. Accept it, and spread it!” He is an Episcopal priest with a progressive evangelical wing, a bumbling Jesus follower on his best days, a preschool dad, and an experienced digital campaigner with a background in climate science and online organizing.
Rev. Nathan is an absolute Christmas nut and an avid music fan and concert goer. Although a proud Westerner from Texas and Idaho with strong Arizona ties, he now lives in southern New England where he serves as a supply (i.e. substitute) parish priest and as a board member for a local food and clothing pantry. He has visited 44 states and can’t wait to see the other six.
