Jarrod is a contemplative activist from Perth, Australia, and he's coming all the way over from Down Under to be with us at the festival this year.
Random bits of Jarrod's story: He once trained 600 climate activists to shut down the world’s largest coal company; he founded Common Grace; it’s not a speech impediment, he’s Australian; he once exhibited in MoMA in NYC with David Bowie; he shares his home with 12 recently arrived refugees; he was a co-initiator of the largest faith-based civil disobedience movement in Australia’s history, #LoveMakesAWay. He has pastored for over 10 years, but he pays the bills as a social change educator. He loves Jesus so much it makes evangelicals blush.
"This extraordinary minister from Australia is a living embodiment of love coupled with justice. He dares to speak with the boldness of a Bishop Desmond Tutu and the critical eye of Martin Luther King, Jr., mixed with the ironic wit of Russell Brand. Jarrod is one of the voices our world has been praying for and this generation needs to hear. Listen, learn, and be blessed!" -Rev. Dr. Otis Moss III (Pastor of Trinity United Church of Christ, Chicago)Jarrod will be participating in the pre-festival Justice Camp on Thursday, July 12 from 9am-5pm (only $59), as well as speaking a couple of times on Friday, July 13, as well. Do not miss this opportunity to connect with a true world-changer, Jarrod McKenna!
