Chantal McKinney

Chantal McKinney is a life-long seeker of the Divine. She is a writer, speaker, entrepreneur, coach, consultant, practitioner of community development, and former church planter who walks among the two worlds of faith and spirituality. She is passionate about making connections between how followers of Jesus are deconstructing and living out their faith in reimagined ways and what this means for our future understanding of church.

She awaits the publication of her first book, Following Jesus Beyond Church Walls. After serving within the Episcopal Church as a parish priest for twenty years, she founded Root Thrive Soar and now accompanies and trains churches and faith organizations around the country that are ready to shift towards deepened community engagement in the spirit of Christ’s love.
