Rev. Dr. Brice Thomas attended United Theological Seminary in Dayton, Ohio (UMC) for his MDiv (2004) and DMin (2015). He was ordained into the UCC in 2005, and has served congregations in Ohio and Tennessee. He is currently serving as chaplain/clinical care manager for a sexual health clinic in Nashville, TN focusing on the testing, treatment and counseling for communities most at risk of STIs and HIV. In 2012, he published a pastoral care resource for gay/lesbian couples called “Committed to Love: Pastoral Care for Same-Sex Christian Couples.” In addition to speaking on issues of sexual health, stigma and healthcare disparities among the LGBTQ and minority communities, his passion is leading peer recovery programs for people living with mental health and substance abuse comorbidities. His research and writings on biblical storytelling has reconnected progressive congregations to the power of the sacred stories–helping folks who have suffered religious trauma find their way back to God and the church. In addition to ministry, Brice loves to sing, ballroom dance, acting, and hanging with his Great Pyrenees/Pitbull mixed pup named Betty White.
