My name is Patrick S. Cheng, and I'm an Episcopal priest, theologian, and attorney.

I work for a national agency of the Episcopal Church, and I serve as an associate priest at The Church of the Transfiguration in New York City.

I also teach at Chicago Theological Seminary as an Affiliated Associate Professor of Theology.

I'm the author or co-editor of four books, including Radical Love (2011), From Sin to Amazing Grace (2012), and Rainbow Theology (2013).

I'm a member of the Board of Trustees of the Anglican Theological Review, and I have served as chair of the American Academy of Religion's Committee on the Status of LGBTIQ Persons in the Profession.
