Hello, I’m Amy and this is my little corner of the internet! Thanks for visiting.

So about me... My name is Amy Elizabeth Bost (Bost Henegar for most of my adult life). I'm a chaplain, writer, teacher and preacher. My favorite topic to think/write/preach about are the stories of Jesus. Jesus was remarkable in the way he treated people. He surrounded himself with those the society deemed to be of little value -- the poor, the sick, the "sinners.” What is more, Jesus was absolutely revolutionary in the way he treated women. In a culture that saw them as property, he saw them as people. In a world where women weren't even trusted to testify in court, Jesus treated them as smart and creative and powerful. He talked to them, ate with them, worked with them. He knew them as people and called them to think deeply, to believe passionately and to act accordingly. I love to imagine how faith in this Jesus can shape our modern lives. What in the world do these ancient stories have to do with us, with our iPhones and air travel? But I believe they are actually intensely relevant to our lives, if we read them carefully and ask the right questions. So that's what I try to do.

You can read some of my writing here, and find sermons here. (And more than you’re actually looking for here!)

So thanks for being here! I'm honored by your presence. Let’s hang out and discover together that we just might be closer than we know!
