Pastor AJ Blackwood |  |
Pastor AJ Blackwood is a Southern California native and holds a Master of Divinity from Claremont School of Theology and a Bachelor of Art in Philosophy with a minor in Comparative Religions from the University of California, Irvine. AJ was raised in a Roman Catholic home with a strong Baptist influence in Anaheim, California. It is here that he first realized he had a call to ministry.
In 2008, AJ took up the call to be a leader in the No on Prop 8 Campaign, later became a founding board member of the Orange County Equality Coalition and in 2010 developed Progressive Interfaith Alliance a community organization that works toward justice for underrepresented peoples.
On a personal side, Pastor AJ is engaged to Denard Thomas, he has two adult children Naomi-Rose and Jon-Luc who live in SoCal and furry baby Olympia Brown, a chocolate lab. Pastor AJ enjoys bicycling, sci-fi and fantasy TV and movies, sewing, and lively debates over politics, theology, and justice.
