“she seeks to heal the wounds created by conservative Christianity”

Hmm, did someone throw a Bible at her or something? Very strange.

Grow thie faith in what? If it feels good, do it? Yes, Jesus loved sinners, but there was that bit about go and sin no more these types of pastors always don’t want to talk about.

Website says she was an associate pastor at another Omaha UMC church, when she decided to start a "coffee shop / bookstore / church" called Urban Abbey that would be a "safe space".

That about says it all. A coffee shop that doubles as a bookstore, and also as a church as well. Three hats in one.

If the bank ever threatens to foreclose on her mortgage, she could meet payments by adding even more hats: How about a Tattoo Parlor / Pawn Shop / Medical Marijuana Dispensary / Coffee shop / bookstore / church?
