Jonathan Foster is a theologian, pastor, grandfather, lover of the outdoors, and football.

Here's more about him in his own words: I’m into a bunch of stuff, the best of which is granddaughter, mountains, friendships, and art, but I’m also the co-founder and executive director OpenTable.network, a new denominational tribe empowering faith communities, pastors, chaplains, and spiritual directors in their local, missional contexts.

Oh, and I write. Find me on Substack or pick up a book. Some of my books have won awards, and some haven’t. It’s sad, the not-winning-awards part, but I do get to add Dr. to my name as I successfully defended my dissertation in mimetic theory and open and relational theology. So, make sure to let everyone know about that news.

Let’s see, what else? Well, Tom Oord and I help make books at SacraSagePress, so if you write in a generally progressive theological way and are interested in partnering with us to bring your book to life, let me know.

Oh, I also hang out with people on my podcast and talk about all kinds of things that intersect with theology.

If you can’t find me on FB, it’s because I’m blocked 🤔, but no problem, join a few thousand other people and subscribe to my Substack page, where you will get a post at least twice a month. Or find me on the IG @jonathan_foster.
