Hi, I’m Beau.

I live in Kansas City with my wife Abbie, two teenage kids, and two giant dogs who think they run the place. I read a lot of fiction, write a lot about faith, and drink way too much Coke Zero.

Becoming Mainline is where I wrestle with theology, tell honest stories, and try to make sense of life after growing up Southern Baptist and landing (somehow) in the Methodist world.

This newsletter is for anyone who’s:

• Rethinking the faith they were handed

• Making peace with doubt and mystery

• Longing for a deeper, wider expression of grace

• Curious about mainline Christianity but unsure if they belong

• Still trying to follow Jesus, even if the old language doesn’t fit anymore
