The Rev. Canon Dr. Stephanie Spellers is one of the Episcopal Church’s leading thinkers around 21st-century ministry and mission. The author of "The Church Cracked Open" and "Radical Welcome," she recently wrapped up nearly a decade as canon to the Episcopal Church’s Presiding Bishop Michael Curry. She currently assists at St. Bartholomew’s Episcopal Church in New York and is at work on a new book exploring what nonreligious young Americans (the “Nones” and “Dones”) can teach us about the future of faith. Prior to her service with Bishop Curry, Spellers served as a chaplain to the Episcopal Church's House of Bishops, directed and taught mission and evangelism at General Theological Seminary, and served as a canon in the Diocese of Long Island. Her professional ministry began at St. Paul's Cathedral-Boston, where she founded The Crossing, a ground-breaking church that weaves Episcopal tradition together with the voices of young adults, people of color and LGBTQ+ people. A graduate of both Episcopal Divinity School and Harvard Divinity School, she received an honorary doctorate from the General Theological Seminary in 2018. Spellers grew up in Kentucky and today makes her home in New York's Harlem neighborhood with her husband Albert and their two chaotic cats.
