About Weston Williams

Follow Me

Weston earned a MA in Theology from Fuller Theological Seminary and a D. Min. from Gordon-Conwell Theological Seminary. Along the way he married his high school sweetheart and together they have three great kids (plus two okay dogs). If God called him into ministry it was because he needed to be in church every Sunday to work out his theology and discover the great diversity in God's kingdom. He has served churches in California and Kentucky, and is known globally as a teller of bad jokes (not a bad joke-teller). His sourdough bread game needs improvement, but his work on the grill brings tears of joy. In his spare time he cheers at high-school sporting events, makes soap, bottles soda, brews beer, fixes cars, reads, and wishes he didn't know anything about plumbing. One day he hopes to be a short-order fry cook at Waffle House.
