Brian McLaren

Brian McLaren is an author, speaker, and former pastor who became one of the central public faces of the early-2000s emergent church movement. Once identified as evangelical, he has since moved toward a self-described progressive and post-evangelical theology, calling for what he frames as a more generous, justice-oriented Christianity. His work continues to be cited as a touchstone in evangelical conversations about deconstruction, doctrinal boundaries, and the future of the faith.
