Jared Gilbert received a Master of Divinity from Yale Divinity School, receiving the institution’s highest honor for pastoral leadership. As student body president and former co-leader of the LGBTQ Coalition he led the school in a series of institution-wide discussions about the politics of race, gender and sexuality in theological education at Yale. Jared’s interest in theologies of liberation comes out of his own experiences and study of repressive and emancipatory theologies of sexuality, and his studies in Womanist theologies with Emilie Townes.
