About Me
B.A. Point Loma Nazarene University
M.Div., Emory University, Candler School of Theology
Sophie Callahan is passionate about nurturing community through practices of spirituality and social justice, especially around shared meals. She is committed to liberative education in its many creative forms. She went to college in San Diego and then earned her M.Div. from Candler School of Theology at Emory University, where she received the Academic Excellence award. She pastored for several years in the Bay Area, launching an intentional Christian community and retreat space on a 95 acre farm. She is currently a Presidential Scholar pursuing her Ph.D. in Practical Theology at the Graduate Theological Union (in Berkeley), focused on intersections of spiritual formation and virtue ethics, especially around eating, habit formation, and race/environmental justice. She has worked in many interfaith and ecumenical spaces on topics such as death penalty abolition, worker justice, and human trafficking. Seeking joy and delight, Sophie is often at a dance class or eating ice cream in her hometown of Minneapolis, along her with husband and two young kids.
