Madison Shockley, Pastor of Pilgrim United Church of Christ in Carlsbad, CA.  Along with performing his pastoral duties with Pilgrim, Madison serves on the board of directors of American Civil Liberties Union (ACLU) of San Diego and Imperial Counties and the board of directors of the Religious Coalition for Reproductive Choice. He also writes commentary for various online and print outlets.

Two of his recent articles focus on Ferguson and are helpful in framing the issues.  Please read and share your comments.
